Against a backdrop of serene blue-gray, Buff's pensive expression captures a moment of contemplation and self-reflection. Cool tones enhance the overall sense of calm, while meticulous brushstrokes bring his features to life and add texture to the composition. The slightly angular, modernist style uses strong elements of light and dark to reflect Buff’s inspirations at the time.
