A watercolour painting using the negative space technique. A blue spiral staircase viewed from above. In the top right corner is the top landing. The floor is pale blue and on it several sparkly dots followed by a large arrow pointing to the stairs have been painted on the floor. The stairs wind counter-clockwise around a pale blue pillar with a sparkling core. Each step has a reflective stripe along its edge. As the stairs descend into the darkness of the next floor, the reflective stripes remain all that’s visible.
