A coiled yellow snake dominates the composition, rendered in meticulous detail with scales carefully articulated in warm gold and ochre tones, while smaller dark serpents wind through the upper left corner. Below the snakes, botanical specimens including green-leafed plants and delicate fern fronds provide natural counterpoint, all arranged against a cream parchment ground in the style of classical natural history illustration. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
