Description

A black and white studio portrait captures two fashion models with painted faces. On the left, an Asian male model wears a black beanie and a black turtleneck sweater; his face is adorned with a black bow painted on his cheek. To his right, a Caucasian female model in a sleeveless knit top has a smear of cream paint on her face and silver hoop earrings. The background is a seamless light gray. The image features a soft, diffused light, highlighting the textures of the clothing and the smooth skin of the models, and giving the image a fashion editorial look.
