This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

An abstract color lithograph with a composition predominately of bright blue. The blue appears in both swirls and precise, narrow strokes and is surrounded by blooms of color in purple, black, red, and yellow. The yellow appears in an arcing swath along the left side, becoming green where it intersects with the blue. Most of the composition extends to the edge of the paper, with some space left along the left edge. Handwritten in the bottom left corner in graphite is [14/100 “Malik I”] with [Sylvia Snowden 10/94] at the bottom right.
