This painting shows two big, blocky shapes in bright, flat colors. One side is mostly red and dark blue, with a small white patch near the bottom. The other side is green and orange, with a red arch shape in the middle. The edges are uneven, like the paint was slapped on quickly. The colors feel bold and simple, almost like a child’s drawing but done by someone who knows exactly what they’re doing. The white background makes the colors pop even more.
