seen from a high three-quarter angle looking down and across, Lest sits seiza-style on a red-and-cream checkered picnic tablecloth spread over park grass, his weight settled back on his heels with his knees together, the cloth wrinkling and rucking under his shins where they press into it. Clorica lies on her back across his lap, her head cradled in the hollow between his thighs, her twin braids spilling off the side of his knee and dragging flat on the tablecloth, the loose tail of one braid curling against the fabric. Her hands rest folded on her own stomach, fingers loosely interlaced, the long sleeves of her jacket bunched at her wrists; her eyes are fully closed, lashes down, a light blush sitting high on both cheeks and a small closed-lip smile curving one corner of her mouth. Lest's right hand rests on the crown of her head, fingers spread and slightly curved, caught mid-stroke with the hair lifting a little between them; his left hand lies flat on the tablecloth beside his hip for balance. His shoulders are relaxed forward, his chin dipped, and his soft-lidded purple eyes look down at her face with a faint, warm, closed-lip smile and a matching light blush across his cheekbones; his whole gaze is on her and nowhere else.
Above and behind them a cherry blossom tree fills the upper frame, its trunk rising out of the left background, branches arcing over the pair so that the top of the image is a mass of pale pink blossom; petals drift down through the middle distance, and a scatter of them have already come to rest on the tablecloth, on Clorica's sleeve and in her hair. Beyond the tree the park opens out into a soft green lawn and clipped low hedges with a few blurred distant trunks, all pushed well back and out of focus so the pair stay the whole subject.
The light is a bright, diffuse spring late-morning sun coming from the upper right, filtering through the blossom so that dappled patches fall across Lest's cape and across Clorica's face and braids; the shadow of the canopy lies over the grass and mottles the edge of the picnic cloth, and the lit petals on the ground are visibly paler than the ones in shade. Palette: pale pink blossom, fresh green grass, the red and cream of the cloth, Clorica's violet hair and gold eyes against Lest's brown hair and deep blue cape, everything soft and low-contrast under the open sky. Cloth and hair read with a clean cel-shaded finish, flat gentle colour with a single step of shading. Tender, hushed.
