A watercolor and pen-and-ink abstraction shows a red-orange disk set within a large, scalloped pale yellow form, surrounded by wavy bands of green and blue. Black wiry lines loop across the top and outline the shapes, while a dark blue hill rises at lower left above a few small, dark forms at the bottom edge.
