Description: 

In this portrait, the model is centered in a sideways pose, looking gleefully to her upper right. The figure is captured from her mid-section up, her left hand slightly touching her right arm, as her right hand cradles her chest. The model wears her curly hair short and quaffed meticulously. A prominent feature in this photograph is the diaphanous effect of the material that surrounds the central figure. The model is adorned with a pearl necklace, and two rings located on her right pinky and ring finger. The light background appears to be chemically altered to give a slight landscape appeal.
