Work Description: 
Two black, linear, stylized forms rise at the center of this work side by side in front of a yellow background. Both "figures" are bolstered by a mauve pigment which serves to enlarge and merge the two figures into one form. The lower half of the figure on the right is additionally painted with a dull teal tone. The figure on the left is topped by two dots and two long white lines flowing from the top down parallel to the figure. The figure on the right has a red highlight at its apex, and a golden disc is seen directly off to the right and above this point in the composition. Several tall golden wheat stalks rise from the lower left corner.
