In this painting on paper, an abstract tree fills the sheet. It stretches between all four sides of the page, extending beyond the image. There is a tangle of branches in front of a background only alluded to by color. At the top of the sheet the artist suggests a sky of blue and pink tones, and at the bottom of the sheet a grassy ground is suggested through teal and green paint. The fields of color are defined by the tree branches. The painting is signed in the lower right, Sheeler - 1947."
