This abstract painting features a large, circular, brown shape with a rough, textured surface. The circle is surrounded by a yellow square outline, which is also rough and textured. Inside the square is a smaller, concentric square outline, also in yellow. Small dots of green and purple are scattered throughout the painting. The painting is created on a background of newspaper clippings, which are visible through the brown paint. The overall effect is one of rough, expressive brushstrokes and a mix of warm and cool colors. If you're interested in exploring more works by the artist behind this piece, consider looking up Paul Thek.
