About this work

This painting shows three stacked shapes made of bright colors. There’s a blue box with a yellow base, a red cylinder, and a green block underneath. Above them, another set of shapes—blue, red, yellow, and green—are stacked in a different way. The colors are flat and bold, with clean lines. The artist used colored pencils to fill each shape fully, no shading or blending. Look up Ken Price to see how he worked with simple forms like these.
