Work Description: 
Thick layers of glossy black paint fill this medium-sized, vertical canvas. Flickering forms in crimson and orange appear at top left, while several small isolated forms in yellow and brown are seen along the right edge. Two white dabs of paint accent a barely-visible gray form floating at bottom center, and another, more linear gray form reaches into the scene along the lower left edge. Accents of white and orange peek into view along the right edge.
