This piece features Psyche against a black wooden background. The shape of Psyche is composed of many tiny nails, with string wrapped around them. In this jumbled string, the two biggest craters stand out. They keep their signature circular shape. The asteroid has tints of orange and yellow at the bottom of it and on top, signifying metal. On top of the asteroid, also in string and nails, is the word PSYCHE in all caps and grey.

A portrait of a woman with long, dark hair is displayed, adorned by a Greek-style gold leaf headband and a gold choker with the Psyche Mission logo as the pendant. She has blue, pupil-less eyes, with ombre eyebrows and halo-style eye makeup. Floating right above her head is the Psyche Mission's spacecraft, which is surrounded by a blue glow that matches her eye color. The spacecraft appears to melt as it is floating and is meant to add a dynamic touch to the still portrait. The background is simply color gradients that I found to be an appealing addition to the portrait.

The background of the painting is black with various sized small whites dots to emulate stars. In the center of the painting is a light blue woman with course curly dark blue that flows to her waist. The woman wears a black and purple crown with a white asteroid in the middle and the words Psykhe written across in black lettering identifying her as the goddess. She wears a green flowing dress with purple off-the shoulder sleeves and a purple waist cinch. Her dress is ancient Grecian styled and she wears a big gold necklace paired with green and blue earrings with curved black designs and lines. A small bracelet adorns her hand with a "c" attached to it hinting the goddess myth in which she was Cupid's lover. She has black and gold wings jutting out of her back with black designs in the gold parts of the wing. On the left wing the word soul is spelled as Psykhe is goddess of the soul and "Ni" is seen as the asteroid contains nickel components. On the right wing a small sketch of the psyche spacecraft can be seen as well as roman numerals that equate to 16 as the psyche asteroid is the 16th asteroid to be discovered.
