This is an accomplished bust length portrait of a young black female looking over her shoulder into the distance. Her attire, a red scarf tied to the back and a yellow shirt with ruffled sleeves, are a bright contrast to the darker tones of her skin and the background. Caro gives careful attention to the feature of her subject, capturing the girl's self-aware spirit and soul. Caro's sure brush work compliments the confidence embodied in her subject and demonstrates of her facility for oils and for portraiture.
