Artist, American, born 1951

The image shows a man from the waist up, seated and leaning slightly forward. His head is tilted slightly downward, and he is looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression. He has short hair and is wearing a cap that is slightly askew with the cap's brim tilted to one side. The man is wearing a plain, loose-fitting T-shirt, and around his neck is a chain with a hanging cross pendant. Smoke can be seen coming from his mouth, forming rings in front of him. The background is plain and dark.
