About this work

This drawing shows a woman in bright orange robes, holding a small figure. Behind her, two more figures float with outstretched arms. The background is dark blue with red roses and gold accents. The colors are flat, with sharp lines. The woman’s face is pale and serious, almost like a religious figure. The floating figures look like angels or saints, but their faces are simple and not detailed. If you like this style, look up Realism next.
