A small pale green prefab cabin, its wall framing still open, sits on bare sand with a single yellow shrub in front and blue mountains behind. Stenciled words — SMALL TRACTS, MODELS 4 SALE, PREFAB CABINS — appear across the surface with small blocks of printed type.

Dennis Johnson built the work from a topographic map and acrylic on canvas; the reference location is Wonder Valley, California. 30" x 40", 2015.
