Painted illustration with a visible grain across the whole frame like gouache on toothed paper, the shapes brushed with soft edges and softly modelled inside. A cropped bust filling the frame, the top of the head cut off. A man bites the end from one long red chilli, his hair cropped close to the skull, his eyes large with a hard dark lash line drawn in short strokes, the skin a flat non-naturalistic bright orange-red. He wears a wide-lapelled jacket patterned in triangles of olive, cream and teal. The ground one plane of deep blue. A limited palette of deep blue, orange-red, olive and teal, each colour area carrying two or three tints of itself. Visible paper grain throughout, brushed soft edges, soft modelling inside the large shapes, flat high-chroma colour.
