A painting of a colorful sky above a rocky landscape. Thick, wavy, dark blue and brown lines at the top gradually lighten to become pale pinks, oranges, and blues in the middle of the painting. On the right side stands an outcrop with a step-like quality. Almost all of the brushstrokes in this painting are roughly horizontal aside from a line of vertical strokes, just left of center, running upwards through the sky.
