Art style: Paper Cut.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered — a cheerful, energetic middle child, a boy around eight years old with a slim, wiry build full of bounce. He has a warm light skin tone, round rosy cheeks, bright playful brown eyes, and a wide gap-toothed grin. His tousled chestnut hair sticks up in messy cowlicks. He wears a bright red and white striped short-sleeve t-shirt, comfy blue denim shorts with a little frayed hem, and mismatched knee-high socks — one green, one yellow — tucked into scuffed white-and-orange sneakers. One arm is raised waving happily while he balances on one foot mid-hop, holding a small toy ball in his other hand. He stands in a sunny living room with a colorful rug, a cozy sofa and framed family photos on the wall behind him.
