Layers of impastoed garnet red pigment cover the surface. A dagger-shaped gray form emerges from the top edge of the canvas, just right of center. Tiny flashes of blue, orange, red, and yellow flicker across the center of the composition. An orange form emerges at the bottom right corner of the work.
