They have prominent eyebrows, a slightly tilted gaze, and a subtle, closed-mouth expression. The person has long, wavy, light brown hair flowing over their shoulders. They are wearing a dark robe with a white cloth around the neck, holding a long, slim object resembling a paintbrush. A red piece of fabric is draped over one arm.
