A white shed with a saffron-orange roof stands in the back corner of a walled garden in this vertical painting. The scene is painted with thickly textured, visible dabs, swirls, and strokes throughout. Diagonal banks of flowers in scarlet red, rust orange, pale peach, corn yellow, shell pink, and navy blue lead into the garden from the lower left to upper right. The space is enclosed with a wood fence, which is painted with vertical, caramel-brown strokes, to our left. The fence to our right of the shed disappears behind a cloud of yellow and green flowers. A tree painted with avocado-green and harvest-yellow strokes towers above the shed to our left, and more flowers and spruce-green trees grow beyond the fence to our right. The sky above is painted with textured, turquoise strokes.
