Color monotype on paper with hand painting that depicts a semi-abstract landscape. The majority of the image includes lines scraped into a field of brown pigment. The outlines of a ship docking station appear along the horizon line just above center. A low white and green triangular form appears just below center extending from center left to the right margin. Each side of the paper is painted to form a border with (clockwise, from top) red, blue, orange, and yellow coloring.
