An oil painting of hills rising to a plateau. You can see a sliver of sky at the top. There is a road cutting diagonally at the bottom of the painting that heads to a bench that has orchards on it. The main form in the center of the painting is in shadow and it has a bell curve shape to it.

Two small oil painting sketches: the top one shows mountains coming down to a river with a highway between the river and the mountains. There is a green tree at the corner, where the highway turns and the lands juts out into the river a little bit.
The bottom sketch shows the orange painting ground peeking through. The river is calm. The painting is unfinished.
