A hunter sits on the ground slightly to the right of bottom centre in this image. The hunter wears a black parka (likely a qulittuq commonly worn by men), boots and mittens. Their hood is up and they have tan-coloured skin. The hunter has an arrow knocked into a drawn bow, suggesting they are ready to shoot. The arrow and the hunter’s face point towards three black birds in the upper left of the image. The birds are shown flying with their wings outstretched. There are two abstract blue shapes beside and above the hunter, possibly suggesting that they have taken cover so as not to be visible to the birds. The rest of the image is left the white of the page.
