Untitled is a 2015 ink by Lisa Yuskavage, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows three women standing close together in an open, grassy field. The sky is soft pink and blue, with a faint city skyline in the distance. The women have long hair, and their bodies blend slightly into each other, creating a dreamy, ghostly effect. The artist used a technique where ink is pressed onto a stone to create the image. This makes the colors look slightly smudged and layered. Look up lithography to see how this process works.
Lisa Yuskavage ( yə-SKAV-ij; born 1962) is an American artist who lives and works in New York City. She is known for her figure paintings that challenge conventional understandings of the genre.
