This painting is a grid of bright, flat colors. Big blocks of red, black, purple, and white line up in rows and columns. The colors are bold—no shadows or blending, just clean edges. Some squares are narrow, others wider, but everything feels balanced. The artist used no shading or texture, just straight colors. It’s like a puzzle made of paint. The mix of warm and cool tones keeps your eyes moving across the whole thing. Check out Fanny Sanin to see how she plays with color.
