This painting is a jumble of sharp angles and bold colors. Jagged lines in orange, green, and black divide the space into uneven shapes. Some areas look rough, like scribbled sketches, while others are smoother, with flat blocks of color. The artist used a mix of thick and thin lines to create a sense of movement. The red-orange shapes stand out against the darker greens and browns, making the whole thing feel dynamic. Try looking up lithography to see how this kind of printmaking works.
