A vertically oriented painting depicts a star flower with six azure petals marked by delicate arcing veins. At the core, a fuzzy brown border rings a yellow center marked with a green swirl. Below, a slender stem curves upward, sprouting four dark emerald, almond-shaped leaves that splay across a cream background. Elegant cursive script reading "Star Flower" anchors the bottom right corner of the composition.
