Untitled is a 1982 ink by Neil Welliver, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a quiet night scene with a dark sky full of tiny white stars. A thin crescent moon hangs low, and a shadowy mountain sits behind a calm body of water. Below, a patch of land with simple trees and bushes reflects the moonlight. The artist used sharp black lines to create the shapes, giving it a clean, almost carved look. The dark blues and grays make the scene feel peaceful and still. If you like this style, look up woodcut to see how artists carve images into wood.
Neil Gavin Welliver was an American modern artist, best known for his large-scale landscape paintings inspired by the deep woods near his home in Maine.
