A painting shows two figures with gray-toned skin holding hands in a golden field. The figure on the left wears a white t-shirt and denim skirt, facing away. The figure on the right wears a pink, orange, yellow, and green tiered dress with a white headband and looks over her shoulder at the viewer. A rocket with a long smoke trail ascends into the light blue sky in the background.
