About this work

This painting is a sea of tiny, tangled lines in bright colors—mostly greens, reds, and blues. The marks are so dense they fill the whole canvas, making it hard to tell where one ends and another begins. The edges are slightly uneven, like it was cut by hand. The lines look like they were drawn fast, almost frantic, with no clear shapes or figures. The colors pop against each other, creating a busy, energetic feel. If you like this kind of abstract work, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more pieces like it.
