Work Description: 
In this almost completely abstract work, Still has painted various interlocking white organic forms down the center of a mostly black backdrop. At the bottom left of this white region, an emerald green creeps into the scene and intermingles with several yellow strokes. Another small yellow passage is seen at the top edge directly above a red feathery form at top center.
