About this work

This painting shows a dark blue-gray background with thick, uneven brushstrokes. Six bright red shapes line up vertically, each looking like a stretched-out letter "D" with jagged edges. The colors clash—deep, heavy shadows against sharp, glowing red. The red shapes stand out because they’re painted thickly, almost like they were slapped on the canvas. The rest of the painting feels rough and textured, while those red marks look deliberate and bold. If you like this style, check out impasto.
