Vertical rectangular artwork with a beige border around the edges. The artwork features a design with a wavy pattern in shades of brown, green, and blue. The waves appear to be stylized and intertwined with flowers. The flowers are white with yellow centers and have five petals. There are also some darker brown lines throughout the design that resemble stems or branches. In the bottom-right corner, there is small orange text. The background of the artwork is primarily composed of the wavy pattern and flowers.
