Work Description: 
Two large ocher forms writhe across the surface of this monumental, horizontal composition. White forms surround the two main ocher forms, activating the bare canvas dominating the painting. A shot of purple hovers along the left center edge opposite a dash of green on the right center edge. A bolt of orange and yellow shoots into view at the top edge, right of center.
