A vibrant mural on the side of a building featuring colourful flowers, a large butterfly, and a bumblebee against a blue sky with clouds and a faint moon. The mural spans the entire length of the building, incorporating a variety of flowers in orange, white, pink, purple, and yellow. A metal staircase leads up to a black door on the right side of the building.
