This painting is a simple, rectangular composition. The top two-thirds of the canvas are a deep reddish-brown color, while the bottom third is a dark gray-blue. The colors are applied in rough, uneven blocks, with visible brushstrokes and texture. The painting's surface is rough and textured, with visible ridges and bumps where the paint has been applied thickly. The overall effect is one of simplicity and restraint, with a focus on the raw materials of the painting itself. If you're interested in learning more about the artist behind this piece, you might want to look up Suzan Frecon.
