This painting shows two big shapes stacked like a V. The top one is green with a black V cut out. The bottom one is black with a green triangle inside. The background is a flat blue, and the edges look a little rough. The shapes don’t look like anything real—they’re just bold colors and simple forms. The artist used thick paint and ink to make it feel bold and direct. If you like this kind of simple, colorful art, check out Jack Youngerman.
