1boy, solo, upper body, short tousled dark brown hair, pale blue-grey eyes, looking to the side, watercolor painting, watercolor texture, clean single-stroke lineart, (cool color temperature:0.7). A single teenage boy fills the frame in a bust portrait, turned slightly to his left with his chin lifted; one hand rests at the open collar of a slate-blue overshirt over a white tee, shoulders relaxed and weight settled on his back foot. His short hair is massed into large color planes with only a few interior strands, and his eyes glance past the viewer toward the upper left, one brow faintly raised. The piece is painted in watercolor: translucent washes build the shirt and background in layered, overlapping passes, pigment blooms open where wet color settles, soft pigment blending carries transitions between flesh and cloth. Linework stays clean and continuous, single-stroke contours with smooth lines and tidy junctions; overlapping outlines meet and terminate cleanly instead of fraying. Shadows are laid as hard-edged shapes with a narrow midtone transition, and any gradient or reflected light stays contained within its own plane rather than spilling across boundaries. Rich natural colors are kept under neutral white balance and (cool color temperature:0.7), with muted teal in the shadow side, warm skin at the cheek, and dry brush leaving pale negative space around the head. Quiet, composed.
