About this work

This sketch shows a woman sitting down, wrapped in a dark shawl and a light head covering. Her hands rest on her lap, and she holds a woven basket. The background is simple, with loose lines and soft colors—mostly pale green and brown. The face is drawn quickly, with strong shadows under the eyes. The artist used quick, rough strokes, leaving some areas unfinished. This style makes the drawing feel alive, like it was done in one sitting. The way the light and dark areas blend gives the face depth. Look up Maniu, Rodica to see more of her work.
