content: Landscape sketch showing a view of rugged hills covered in autum foliage. Sloping terrain in the foreground is loosely rendered in shades of beige and brown. In the middle distance, two hillsides converge at center to frame a view of a pointed peak behind them at center. Both ridges, as well as the peak, are blanketed in dark red autumn foliage. The sky above is a clear, saturated blue.
