All you have to do is simply say what you see in this spooky black-and-white image.

The painting, created by American artist Tom Fritzson, may play tricks on you while trying to interpret your individual characteristics.

That's because the puzzle can be viewed in a number of different ways... but what do you see?

A woman with her hands behind her neck

If you spotted a woman hunched over with her hands behind her neck, this suggests people may think you are defensive.

Those with a guarded demeanor are more likely to register the image as this, according to the Mind Journal.

As the mysterious figure huddles in the fetal position, the details of her hair, spine and limbs are easy to see.

Those who noticed the woman are likely to feel stuck in a rut and emotionally exhausted right now.

You may feel like you have been yearning to learn how to take the leap and make big decisions that will significantly impact your life.

It's important not to let the fear of the unknown rule your mind - so take on new challenges and push yourself.

Don't be too concerned about the analysis either - as spotting the woman also suggests you have a stellar imagination and problem-solving abilities to make up for it.

A large skull

Those who instead spotted a large skull in the gothic portrait are typically strong leaders - who have hundreds of hurdles to get over.

Despite setbacks, you are able to persevere through the tough times and take on anything that comes your way.

Although you may be going through a rough patch, your strong sense of leadership will help guide you through.

And this quality is obvious to everyone around you - as you always show up during challenging times with a positive attitude.

But you might still need to be kinder to yourself, according to the Mind Journal.

If you feel you need to tweak a few habits to better yourself, do it.

However, remember not to lose your shine that makes you so strong and influential. Learn to embrace and adapt your best qualities.

If you enjoyed delving into the depths of your personality, why not find out even more about the inner you?

What you see first in this optical illusion claims to reveal whether you are incredibly needy or righteous among your peers.
