About this work

This painting shows three rough, uneven squares of color on a white background. The top has three pale rectangles—yellow, peach, and a faded pink—stacked like pages. Below that, a green square with a dark corner sits slightly crooked. At the bottom, a dark blue square looks almost scratched, with messy brushstrokes. The colors feel simple but messy, like they were painted fast or by hand. The paper looks like notebook pages, with faint lines showing through.
