Work Description:
|
Bright canary yellow pigment fills the entire left and center part of the composition, though two small interjections of exposed canvas emerge from the bottom left corner. Just right of center along the top edge, a small, lighter yellow form bordered by exposed canvas floats amidst the thick yellow field. Along the right edge of the canvas, thin vertical forms in orange, sunflower yellow, crimson, black, and purple run from top to bottom along side one another separated by thin strips of exposed canvas. A tiny blue form sits at the bottom right corner.
