This painting shows three horizontal panels of white and blue shapes. The top two panels have sharp blue triangles and rectangles against a white background. The bottom panel swaps to thin blue lines on white, like a grid gone wild. The edges are clean, almost like it’s framed by a border. The blue isn’t flat—it’s layered, with some areas looking thicker than others. This might be how the paint was applied. If you like this kind of bold, simple design, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more work like this.
