The image has an abstract background of almost neon purple with some bright blue and pink sharp brush strokes. Some lines look like colored pencil doodles. At the bottom left is a darker purple, and at the bottom right is a light pink. At the very bottom are some bright green lily pads and pink lotuses.

At the top of the image is a blue bar with a white outline serving as a name tag. In the middle is a picture of the featured artist.

Brenda is a Colombian American woman pictured close up with gold wire-rimmed glasses and brown hair. She is seated outdoors with a blue sky and trees in the background. She is wearing a yellow sweatshirt and a red patterned scarf wrapped around her neck. Her head is tilted to the right, with a big grin across her face.

Below that is a blue rectangle with a white outline with details about the artist. At the bottom right corner is a white text box that says, “Thank you to our funders and @forallthingsdigital for sponsoring.”
