The image shows a black background with various items on it: there's an explosion depicted by red lines radiating outward from what appears to be a central point; above this is another smaller explosion in blue, and below that is a small tree-like structure also colored brown; next to the tree are two objects resembling eyes or pebbles with faces drawn on them. The style of art suggests it might have been created using clipart elements for decoration purposes rather than as an artistic representation.
