Description
A stylized bird with a curved teal-and-green tail stands on a beach in profile, its body patterned in orange, cream, and black. Behind it, bare brown branches rise against a tan sky beside a red-and-white concentric-circle sun, with pale dunes at the base. The print is signed and dated in pencil below the image, with a red artist's seal at lower right.
