Work Description: 
A tall, matte black columnar tree-like form rises from the bottom edge of the narrow canvas, branches off into two other small appendages, and curves off to the right slightly before running out of the scene at the top center edge. A rich reflective brown surface surrounds the form, interjected only at the bottom right by a cobalt blue passage and at the top left by a red disc, which floats on top of a matte rectangular section of the brown field.
