Work Description:
|
Intensely vibrant yellow paint covers the majority of this vertical composition. A slightly darker yellow rises up along the lower left edge from the bottom left corner. Cobalt blue jagged form enters from the left center edge and hovers in the midst of this darker yellow form, with jagged arms shooting up towards the top edge and down towards the bottom. Several smaller cobalt forms–also surrounded by a darker yellow pigment–float just above this top arm and to the right, as if they have separated from the larger blue form below and to the left. A similarly sized red form sits along the upper left edge, directly to the left of the smaller blue forms. Finally, a small, mint green form is barely visible at the bottom right corner.
