Work Description: 
A brilliant blue covers the right half of the canvas. A large black form, as well as several small white and maroon inclusions, are placed throughout this area. The left side of the composition is filled with a deeper, glossy blue, which is also interrupted by several black and white forms. A vertical black form spanning the entire height of the canvas separates the two main blue hues. A small splash of orange emerges from the left center edge of the work.
