About this work

This is a simple line drawing of a woman wearing a knee-length dress. The dress is dark brown with a short collar and three visible buttons down the front. The skirt flares out slightly at the bottom, and the woman’s pose is relaxed, with one hand resting on her hip. In the corner, there’s a flat sketch of the dress pattern next to her. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, focusing on the dress’s shape and details. The buttons are drawn carefully, showing how they line up on the fabric. Want to see more?
