About this work

This sketch shows a simple line drawing of a person wearing a dark suit with a bright, colorful plaid pattern. The outfit includes a jacket with two buttons and a matching knee-length skirt. Next to the figure, there’s a basic back-view sketch of the same jacket. The drawing is loose and quick, with no extra details. The colors pop against the plain background, making the plaid stand out. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
