Description

This black and white portrait features a black man with dreadlocks seated on the floor with his knees pulled up towards his chest. He is wearing a heavily distressed, light-wash denim jacket and matching jeans adorned with splatters of white paint. His head is tilted back in a dynamic, expressive laugh, revealing dental braces. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the textures of the distressed denim and the contours of his upper body. The background is a clean, neutral grey studio sweep that keeps the focus entirely on the subject.
