DescriptionA shirtless young man with a tattoo on the underside of his left forearm sits sideways in the driver’s seat of a lowrider facing the viewer. The car is painted gold with a white fabric top. The driver’s side door is open revealing tufted brown upholstery. The car is parked diagonally on a dirt road next to the highway. A hill in the background has a large cross atop it. Thin white clouds float in the background sky.
