About this work

This small painting shows wavy, dark lines that look like water or shadows. Four oval shapes sit in the middle, each with a tiny white rectangle inside. The edges are framed in bright pink and purple lines, and the whole thing is drawn on graph paper. The artist signed it in the corner, along with the year 1969 and the words "Music for the Mind’s Eye." The colors are mostly dark blue and gray, but the border pops with those bold colors.
