Work Description:
|
PH-309 is mostly covered in a mottled middle gray-brown pigment. An irregular large shape painted with a darker charcoal gray pigment dominates the left half of the composition. A thin snaking red line runs down this shape's center. Two smaller irregular shapes painted in a lighter gray sit on either side of the dark gray shape at the composition's center left and bottom right edges. A dark yellow-gray shape sits at the center of the light gray shape on the left edge, and a dark brown/maroon linear form hovers within the light gray form at the bottom right.
