This is an oil painting on canvas. Reddish brown liquid, painted at center, forms the semi-abstract word, "Eye." Brown beans appear in the area of the liquid, and a green olive with a pimento is visible in the "y" and the last "e." The background is yellow and transitions to brown at the top margin.
