About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a fitted pink suit with three buttons down the front. The jacket has a speckled texture, and the matching skirt hits just above the knees. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears simple heels. The sketch uses quick, loose lines to suggest fabric and movement. The pink and purple tones stand out against the plain background.
