About this work

This painting is three big circles stacked inside each other. The outermost ring is deep blue, the middle one is bright orange, and the center is a flat white. The edges are sharp, with no shading or blending between the colors. The simplicity makes it feel bold and clean. The colors are strong but not mixed—just solid blocks.
