Work Description:
|
A rich chocolate-brown pigment covers the majority of this massive horizontal canvas. A vertical strip about one foot wide painted with a sienna-toned reddish brown pigment runs along the left edge of the work. A thin strip of black runs along its left edge down the canvas edge from about one-third of the way down the canvas down to the bottom left corner. On the sienna form's bottom right edge, an ocher and black form acts as a division between the sienna and chocolate-brown. A tiny, fragile red lifeline runs from top to bottom edge splitting the velvety brown field left of center. A black orb-like form floats in the center of the brown field right of center, and another black dagger-shaped form juts into the scene from the top edge directly to the right of the red line. A small, barely perceptible gray form sits in the bottom right corner.
