The brown outline sets out to describe a flower and loses its nerve partway through: petals fold into each other rather than separating, the centre caves inward, and one veined leaf asserts itself mid-stem with far more conviction than anything around it. Okafor's line never resolves the flower into a finished specimen, and the drawing is better for the refusal.
