This painting is made of lots of small, colorful squares and rectangles. The colors are soft—pinks, yellows, blues, and browns—arranged in stripes and blocks. Some sections look textured, like fabric or paper, while others are smooth. The lines don’t quite match up, giving it a slightly uneven, handmade feel. The artist used a printing method that lets the ink sit on top of the surface, making some areas look raised or rough. This isn’t a painting in the usual sense—it’s a printed image. Check out how the artist made this using lithography.
