The composition is a farmscape with four different homes and barns. In the foreground a hint of water can be seen in the lower left corner of the composition in front of a pale green open space leading up to a farmstead with a red barn, another out building, and a white house surrounded by two trees. There appears to be two figures standing in front of the white house in the foreground. The middle ground contains various shades of green and yellow rolling hills, farm fields, and three more farmsteads. Dark gray hills rise up above the farm fields in the background and a soft gray sky fills the upper third of the composition.

This vertical rectangle composition is composed of gestural layers of color with a patterned layer of pale gray overall. It appears that a buff yellow rectangular shape, that just about fills the whole space, is the first layer of color followed by a small patch of green and a bit bigger patch of orange. These colors all seem to be painted over with a gestural layer of pale gray, again filling the composition. On top of all of this color is a series of pale gray architectural shapes filling the composition. A meandering rectangular pattern runs right to left across the upper 1/4 of the composition. A series of narrow arch-like window openings run right to left in the upper 1/3 of the composition with the vertical support for the arches running down to the bottom of the composition.

This vertical rectangular composition is filled with three leaf-like images layered one on top of the other from left to right set against a dark opaque background. The leaf-image on the left, the smallest of the three, is made up of a dark vertical branch with a series of elm-like leaves sprouting out from either side of the branch. Behind this leaf-image is a ghost-like image of the first leaf-image, however this image is larger. Behind the middle image is an even larger leaf-like image though instead of made-up of leaves it appears to have a leaf shape cut out of a plank of wood revealing a vertical wood grain pattern.

Houses by the Tracks
The lower half of this horizontal composition is a brick retaining walling running from the lower right hand corner to approximately the middle of the left side of the composition. The wall partially obscures the small out buildings and houses, some with windows lit. These houses sit within a grove of leafless trees whose branches reach to the top of the composition. Only the upper left corner remains barren. The composition is in black and white without color.

This nearly square composition is divided into two sections with the section on the left being a loosely woven circular shape nearly filling the left side and within the center of the circle are a series of stick figures graduating in size from left to right. On the right a swatch of yellow-green connects the circle on the left to a transparent chalky background. Black branch-like lines move under the yellow-green swatch and run into a vertical black branch-like image that seems anchored in another yellow-green swatch along the bottom of the composition and mirroring the swatch above.

The composition contains five women lined up in two rows facing right. They are all wearing light colored long dresses with shawls over their heads. The three women in the front row balance bowls on their heads. Two women in the row behind the others appear to have a white steer between them, with only its neck and head showing. The woman to the left of the steer has her hands up near her neck as if about to clap. The woman to the right of the steer is holding a flower like object over her head. All the figures move through a modulated colored space with no clear definition of ground and horizon.

The composition features a rural countryside with plowed fields and a farmstead in the middle distance. The foreground opens with a fence post filling the majority of the middle ground; to the far right vertical telephone poles topped with telephone wires lead the viewer into the background. Plowed and ordered fields lead to another fence in the middle ground that mimics the fence in the foreground. Vegetation leading up to a farmstead can be seen on the right middle ground. The plowed fields lead to the horizon line which gives over to a large cloud-filled sky dominating the upper 2/3 of the composition.

The composition contains a thunderstorm raining on a farm, foot hills and mountain range. In the far right foreground is a figure plowing with two rearing horses. In the middle foreground are some small buildings surrounded my pine trees. And to the far left of the foreground are two deer standing in the clearing. Immediately behind the foreground divided by a line of pine trees are the rolling hills taking the viewer back to a lofty mountain range. Over the central mountain peak a jagged line of lighting splits the dark sky into two parts. On the right light can be seen below darkness overhead. On the left, diagonal lines of rain cut across the composition.
