Work Description:
|
Layers of bright yellow paint in various hues cover the surface of this medium-sized canvas. A flat, more evenly-painted bright yellow form is visible along the right edge, isolated from the rest of the yellow composition. The very edge of a dark blue form is seen in this yellow form's center along the lower right edge. A white form appears in the bottom right corner, balanced by several small dabs of white sprinkled across the composition's surface and at the top right edge. An orange form rises vertically into view along the bottom left edge, and two small bursts of bubble-gum pink and crimson hover in the top right quadrant.
