Untitled is a 1967 ink by James Boynton, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a single, spiky object floating in the center of a pale yellow background. It looks like a sea urchin, drawn in dark lines against a light, almost empty space. The edges of the paper are visible, and the whole thing feels simple and clean. The artist left it untitled, but it’s part of a set of ten prints made the same way. The lines are precise, almost like a sketch blown up big. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how it works.
