About this work

This print is a mix of bold stripes and shapes. Blues, reds, and yellows clash in jagged lines, forming a rough pattern. A yellow oval with dots sits in the center, surrounded by sharp angles and overlapping bands. The artist used a printing method that layers ink on stone, then presses it onto paper. The result looks hand-drawn but is actually made through a process called lithography. Look up lithography to see how this technique works.
