Work Description:
|
Glossy crimson and black forms weave around one another across the entire surface of this medium-sized, vertical composition. Brown forms and lifeline streaks of blue intermingle amongst the black appendages. A small flash of yellow juts into view at the top left, reaching into the crimson field to an area also dotted with dabs of white and blue. Several other flashes of orange appear across the top center of the composition, while one reaches into the scene from the bottom center edge.
