About this work

This image shows three simple black shapes on a white background. The lines are smooth and clean, like outlines of leaves or waves. One shape is tall and curved, another sits below it like a smaller version, and a third leans to the side. The artist used just lines and empty space to make it feel light and open. It’s part of a set of prints, so it’s meant to be reproduced. If you like this kind of clean, simple art, check out lithography to see how it’s made.
