About this work

This painting has lines and grids on a white background. The lines are very thin and evenly spaced, which makes the painting look calm. The artist used a pencil to draw these lines, and you can see the slight texture of the pencil marks. The artist used a technique similar to cross-hatching to create this effect, which is also used by other artists, like the ones you can find at the museum, but to learn more, look up the technique of cross-hatching.
