This painting shows a bright yellow circle with the number 6 in red at its center. Around the 6, the words "EAT ME" curve in bold red letters. Below the circle, the word "HEXAGON" is written in big red letters. The background is a plain brown color. The artist used simple shapes and strong colors to make it eye-catching. The word "HEXAGON" is a fun twist—it’s not a perfect six-sided shape, but it’s close. Look up Robert Indiana to see more of his bold, word-based art.
