This painting looks like a patchwork of tiny squares and rectangles. The top half is mostly white with black scribbles filling each little shape. The bottom half has bold colors—reds, blacks, and a few greens—arranged in a zigzag pattern. Some squares have dots or lines inside, while others are plain. The artist used real paper cutouts, then added ink and watercolor by hand. The messy edges and overlapping pieces make it feel like a collage.
