Elf stares directly at the viewer, her face looks concerned, a hint of fear in her eyes. Against a dark maroon backdrop, she's dress in a black cap-sleeved top and fingerless gloves. Her hands, adorned with long spiked black finger-nails rest on her cheeks and lips as if she's seen something shocking. She has red vertical smudges on her upper and lower eyelids - a nod to harlequin make-up - and matching red-pink lipstick.
Elf - dressed in a black cap-sleeved dress and black fingerless gloves - looks directly at the viewer, shoulders squared to the camera. Her hands are clasped innnocently in front of her collarbones, and her face - adorned with traditional white-faced clown make-up (including a foam red nose) - wears an angelic expression. She's wearing a big bright red, curly shoulder-length wig.
Elf poses mid-sneak  - one hand at her lips, the other hand holding a hammer - against a background of draped plastic sheeting. She is dressed in a black knee-length dress with thigh high splits, a red suit jacket, black fishnet stockings and black slip on shoes. She wears traditional white-faced clown make-up with a black wig cap.
