About this work

This painting is a wild mix of shapes and colors. Bold black lines slice through swirls of red, white, and brown. Circles and sharp angles collide—like a gear, a wheel, and a star all tangled together. The paint looks thick in spots, almost like it was slapped on quickly. The artist used simple tools: watercolor, gouache, and pencil. The colors pop against the white background, making the chaos feel alive.
