This painting is eight small pictures of hockey players in action. The players are black and white, but their pucks and skates are bright yellow and orange. The background is white, and the players look like they’re scattered across the ice in quick, fast moves. Notice how the colors pop against the plain white space—it makes the pucks and skates stand out. The players aren’t detailed, but their positions tell a story of movement and energy. Look up Chris Hanson, Hendrika Sonnenberg next to see how they turn simple shapes into dynamic scenes.
