About this work

This painting is a portfolio of seven aquatints. The artist used simple shapes and bold colors. He arranged them in a grid pattern, which creates a sense of order and balance. This pattern is interesting because it's repeated in each of the seven aquatints, with small changes. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: Sean Scully.
