In the foreground is a table surface with recycled, yogurt containers filled with paint, paint brushes, and a pitcher of water. In the background, the artist David Kearns, has his back turned and is painting a mural made up of trees transitioning into fall colors. The mural features a black-haired dog walking amongst the trees and a city scape in the background. The paint style is blotchy and fuzzy with details not completely made out.
