This painting shows three tall, spiky plants with long, thin leaves spreading out. The background is a plain, warm yellow-brown color. A pale crescent moon sits below the plants, almost hidden by the leaves. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the plants a wild, almost dancing feel. The ink lines stand out against the soft, blended colors. Look up Mikhail Larionov to see more of his bold, experimental work.
