Untitled is a 1941 watercolor by Pavel Tchelitchew, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a swirl of bright, messy colors. Reds, blues, and yellows blend together in a chaotic way. You can barely tell where one shape ends and another starts. The edges are rough, like the paint was slapped on fast. The artist used watercolor and ink, letting the colors run into each other. It doesn’t look like anything real—just a burst of color and movement. If you like this style, look up watercolor, glazing next.
