A vertically oriented, abstract woodcut in bold green, red, yellow, and blue features a stylized figure to our left aiming a white bow. Heavy black areas outline a large red shape curving upward beside green foliage-like patterns. Below, jagged yellow and white shapes interlock with organic curves, creating a dense, fractured landscape of sharp angles and vibrant color throughout the composition.
