This painting is all bright orange shapes on a deep blue background. The orange looks like tangled lines or maybe cracks in ice. It fills the whole canvas—no empty spots, just a busy mix of colors. The artist used thick paint to make the orange stand out. The brushstrokes are uneven, giving it a rough, almost textured look. Check out Alma Woodsey Thomas next—she made this in 1973.
