A horizontally oriented pencil drawing on beige paper depicts a large tree dominating the left foreground, its canopy rendered with dense, dark diagonal strokes. A vertical picket fence stretches across the middle ground, separating the tree from a backyard with a swing set. Behind the fence, several uniform houses with triangular roofs sit in the distance. Heavy graphite marks create shadows under the tree, contrasting with the light, sketchy lines of the buildings.
