Posts and conduit partly hid the mural. Here, conduit suspended from rusty metal partly hid the maiden's face.

Tree branches behind the maiden (near the Midtown Direct Smoke Shop) were partly natural leaves, and partly butterfly wings.

To the left of the maiden were more butterfly tree branches. In pale green was also the suggestion of a distant forest.

Near the ground, and near a pile of gathered dirt, was the signature for the work. It mentioned the artist's website and his name.

To the far left of the mural was a brown tree. The green near the base was actually weeds growing in front of the mural.
