Three black bats cross a wide night sky with no ground or horizon. A softly rendered crescent moon in warm muted gold hangs in the upper right, joined by small five-pointed gold stars and flecks of white.

The sky is built from cloud-like passages of dusty indigo, periwinkle and lilac, laid on in heavy palette-knife impasto over a fine canvas grain. The even, ambient glow gives the scene a whimsical, cozy-spooky folk-art mood.
