Work Description: 
Two ghostly white forms float in the upper right area of this colorful composition. Interlocking forms painted in black, gray, red, brown and blue surround the forms. Several small brighter accent forms in orange and yellow are scattered near the top center and near the bottom left. A single acid-green lifeline enters the scene along the left edge before curving back towards the left edge and ending abruptly before running out of the scene again.
