About this work

This painting shows a pair of bright pink legs with scaly, fish-like skin. Between them sits a small, gray, U-shaped object that looks like a stool or chair. The background is mostly pink and white, with some smudged charcoal marks and splatters. The scales are drawn with quick, uneven lines, giving them a rough, almost textured look. The colors are bold and messy, like something scribbled fast but carefully. Check out Amy Sillman next to see more of her bold, playful work.
