Art style: 2D Hand-drawn.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, a nine-to-ten-year-old boy centered in a sunlit schoolyard with painted asphalt, a low fence and other blurred kids filling the sides. He has fair skin with a light scatter of freckles, an oval face, dark brown tousled short hair with a side-swept fringe, thin dark eyebrows and bright brown eyes. His expression is a smug teasing smirk, head tilted back, one eyebrow raised, arms crossed over his chest as he joins the mocking dare. Slim, lanky boyish build. He wears a mustard-yellow hoodie over a grey t-shirt, dark blue jeans slightly rolled at the ankle, and worn white-and-green sneakers with untied laces. A small navy backpack strap crosses one shoulder. Natural daytime light, no aura, no text.
