About this work

This painting shows a single dark shape on a white background. The shape looks like a rough, uneven blob with some straight edges mixed in. It’s all one color—deep black—with no details or texture you can make out. The artist used polished crayon, which makes the black look smooth and slightly shiny. That’s unusual for crayon work, which often feels waxy or rough. Next, check out The Museum of Modern Art to see more works like this.
