About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a bright yellow coat and matching skirt. She wears a dark hat and stands with her hands tucked into her pockets. The lines are simple but confident, with a light background that keeps the focus on her outfit. The bright yellow coat is the standout detail—it’s bold and catches your eye. The artist used clean, flat colors and smooth shapes to make the figure look modern. Want to see more? Check out Marie-Louise Carven.
