Static pixel art of a stylized human-like face in profile view. The figure has short black hair covering the top portion of the head. Skin is rendered in shades of light brown and beige. One visible eye is closed with a single dark pupil; no eyelashes are present. A thick, curved mustache extends from the upper lip area downward on both sides. The background is solid medium gray. Pixelation creates blocky edges throughout the image. No text or additional objects appear in the frame.
