About this work

This painting shows a simple shape on a light background. A half-circle sits at the top, outlined in black with a thin blue line inside it. Below that is a circle with a small crossbar and dot—like a basic symbol. The colors are flat and clean: black, blue, and white with a pale beige paper. The lines are precise, with no shading or texture. Next, check out gouache to see how artists use this paint.
