This painting shows a bright yellow square background with a big circle in the center. The circle is split into six equal wedges—deep purple, dark green, brown, navy blue, maroon, and black. The colors are flat and solid, with no shading or texture. The lines dividing the wedges are sharp and clean, almost like a pie cut into slices. The whole thing looks simple but precise, like a puzzle piece that fits perfectly. If you like this, check out Sol LeWitt.
