About this work

This painting is a sea of tiny dots and lines. Mostly yellow, with flecks of green, blue, and brown scattered everywhere. The marks are so small they blur together, but up close, you’d see each one was carefully placed. The artist used a tool to scrape into metal plates, then inked them to create this effect. It’s like a close-up of a starry sky, but without any clear shapes. Check out etching to see how this technique works.
