Abstract watercolor of a small adobe building which was used as a studio. The picture plane is divided into three separate organic shaped geometric elements; a fluid swash of green ground on which the adobe structure sits and a large transparent wash of blue surrounding the building as the sky. The studio itself is softened rectangle shape of transparent yellow which reveals, to the left, a brown feathered watercolor bleed as the doorway.
