Work Description:
|
Three shades of red fill the center of this vertical canvas. The darkest red runs down the center, a firetruck-engine-red sits to the left center, and a more mottled, uneven red sits at right. Two thin strips of flat black paint run down both the left edge and right edge of the canvas, effectively sandwiching the red forms. A single orange streak floats amidst the brightest red at top left.
