A close-cropped profile of a figure tilting the head back, built from loose charcoal or graphite lines that define the jaw, neck, and shoulder mass against a burst of radiating oil-pastel or crayon strokes in red, orange, yellow, purple, and teal. The drawing is executed with fast, expressive mark-making: the dark structural drawing anchors the form while the centrifugal colour field behind it generates heat and movement.
