About this work

This painting is a wild mix of scribbles. Bright colors—pink, blue, yellow—crisscross the page in messy lines. Some look like words, others like jagged marks. The background is a pale yellow, almost glowing under all the ink. The artist used felt-tip pens, which makes the lines thick and uneven. It feels like someone was drawing fast, without stopping to think. Check out Paul Sharits to see more of his work.
