About this work

This painting shows two big shapes stacked together. The top is a smooth, flat blue oval. Below it, a red oval sits inside the blue one, like a half-circle cutout. The colors are bright and simple—no extra details or textures. It looks like the red shape is floating inside the blue one, but there’s no background or depth. This is a woodcut, a printing method where the artist carves into wood.
