This painting shows six tall, narrow buildings stacked in two rows of three. Each building has bright, flat colors—pink, orange, blue—and simple shapes like doors and windows. The background is a warm brown, and the whole scene feels like a grid of houses. The buildings look like they’re made from blocks of color, not realistic details. The artist used felt-tip pens, which gives it a bold, sketchy feel. Next, check out Betty Parsons.
