About this work

This painting shows thick, vertical stripes in black, green, and gray. The lines aren’t straight—they wobble and overlap, like trees or shadows. Some spots are almost white, others deep and dark, with rough edges. The artist used a printmaking method where ink is pressed onto stone or metal. That’s why the lines look uneven and the colors blend in places. Check out lithography to see how this technique works.
