This painting looks like a messy scribble of black ink on light paper. There are lots of tiny lines and dots all over, with no clear shapes or figures. The marks seem random, like someone drew fast without stopping. The artist made this in 1960, using only ink on paper. There’s no easy way to tell what it’s supposed to be—it’s just abstract.
