Work Description: 
Beginning with the viewer's left edge of the canvas , there is a large black vertical form with a smaller blue horizontal form above it. Just to the right of the black form, there is a thinner white form with a yellow line running through, extending from the top to bottom edge of the canvas. There is a large two-toned red form to the right of the white form. This red form has a small amount of black outlining a portion of the outside upper left area. There are two smaller white with yellow forms just to the right of the red form; they are both very thin and extend from the bottom edge of the canvas about 1/4 of the way up for the smaller form and 1/3 of the way up for the larger form. Near the center of the canvas is a red-outlined orange form. It is more circular than the other forms and has a line trailing down from the body. Finally, there is a small white form on the viewer's top right corner of the canvas, which again contains yellow inside of it. The remainder of the canvas is bare.
