Artist, American, born 1944

The photograph depicts a close-up of a person's head and part of the shoulders. The individual is facing slightly to the side but looking straight at the camera with smooth skin, full lips, and expressive eyes. They have short hair, are wearing a dark off-shoulder top, a black string necklace, and a long dangling earring on one side of their face. The background shows a colorful mural or wall painting with bold splashes of red and green.
