An abstract watercolour painting. A pale pink background is covered with several large blotches of various pinks and a blotch of brown in the bottom left corner. On top of the brown blotch is a pinkish-brown ring. Cutting across the painting on a swooping angle is a thick link of reddish brown that’s nearly opaque at its edges and more transparent on the inside. From the top, bottom, and left side, groups of curving lines enter the painting and attach to blotches of different colours. Where they meet, their colours bleed together.
