A colorful watercolor painting on paper shows five white-petaled flowers with yellow centers under a bright yellow sun in a blue sky. The flowers have tall green stems, and the background includes broad blue brushstrokes. The painting rests on sheets of newspaper on a table, with a child’s hand partially visible in the bottom corner.
