Image description
The artwork depicts a tall palm tree with arching fronds that dominate the composition. The leaves are detailed with shades of green, ranging from bright lime to deep forest, and hints of brown. The trunk is textured with vertical lines. The background is a neutral, light color. The fronds spread outward in all directions, filling the upper part of the image.
