A vertically oriented watercolor and graphite drawing depicts a clustered industrial landscape. In the center stand two tall, white cylindrical silos. To the right, a dark water tower sits on a spindly frame above rectangular brown and white buildings with slanted roofs. Sharp geometric shapes and visible pencil outlines structure the composition. Muted washes of gray, brown, and green fill the forms with reddish tones under horizontal bands of gray and blue sky.
