About this work

This image shows a simple square of deep red-brown paint inside a black border, set against a grid of graph paper. The edges are uneven, like a rough cut. Above and below the square, there’s handwritten text in pencil—short, broken sentences about color and perception. The grid paper and the messy border suggest the artist was playing with how shapes and lines look up close. The text hints at questions about how we see color and space. If this style intrigues you, look up lithography next.
