A ballerina wearing a white tutu holds a fan in both hands in front of her chest. The ballerina wears her hair pulled back off her face, with an orange streak behind her head. Her left arm curves behind her neck and her right arm is under her left. The ballerina's body faces left and her head tilts up and to the right. The ballerina's legs are turned outwards and her weight is on her right leg. The ballerina wears ballet slippers. The background of the drawing is sepia-toned. The drawing appears to be a sketch with smudges and lines visible.
