Untitled is a 1969 ink by Lee Mullican, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a swirling ocean scene with bright, floating shapes. Deep blues fill most of the space, but there are also yellow and orange circles scattered around. A dark figure in the lower left holds what looks like a fishing net or a boat, while the water above glows with light spots. The artist used simple shapes and bold colors to create movement, almost like the water is alive. The floating dots and lines make you feel like you’re looking at a busy underwater world. If you like this style, check out lithography to see how artists print these kinds of images.
