Original artwork description:

The painting depicts a woman who lifts her upper lip and the tip of her nose, making it funny and snub-nosed using her index finger. She holds her head with her hands on the right and left sides of the image. With her little fingers on them, she raises her eyebrows, making her face look surprised. In this part, only the tips of her fingers are visible, and their silhouette looks like perky little horns above her head. Her eyes look directly at the viewer. We can feel fun, joy, and playfulness in them. Freckles on the face emphasize the youth and light vibe. On her right ear, we see an oversized round earring and a modern piece of jewelry in the center of the outer part of the ear – an ear cuff. This jewelry gives femininity and a little rebellious mood to the woman.

The picture reflects the state when the inner child gets along with the adult.
