About this work

This print is mostly black and white with bold shapes. On the left, there’s a thin red stripe. In the middle, two white circles overlap slightly, and a thick black bar cuts across them. The top and bottom edges have a blue zigzag border. The artist used a mix of simple shapes and bright colors to create something clean and balanced. This piece is part of a big set of prints, each made with different methods. Next, check out lithography to see how artists like this make prints.
