Description

A brown dog facing the left of the canvas has exaggerated and disproportionate limbs is running in the piece as it seems to be chasing a yellow star/leaf. The yellow star/leaf is coming from what seems to be a tree branch. The background of the image is white with a wavy effect. There are specks of yellow around the border of the piece with the space below the dog being black with a neon red outline. Beneath the dog's legs, which are both in the air, there is a neon red circle, that could symbolize the sun, above the black foreground.
