Work Description:
|
The majority of this work's ground is painted a flat white color with the exception of the top edge and top left corner, which are painted a warm gray tone intermingled with three to four patches of white. A long maroon hockey-stick shape is painted within the white area of the composition and is topped with a red halo with three long black lines trailing from its right side. An orange passage is roughly painted in a fuzzy rectangular form starting at the left edge about a third of the way up the work and running horizontally over to the central form. On the right side of the maroon shape, an deep umber brown irregular form appears and runs off the right side of the canvas. A tiny flame of yellow appears at the top edge of the canvas just left of center.
