This painting shows three big shapes stacked vertically. The top is a half-circle of orange, the middle is a dark purple arch with rough edges, and the bottom is another orange half-circle. The background is a pale, off-white paper that looks slightly textured. The brushstrokes in the dark shape are uneven, almost like someone quickly sketched in the curves. The orange areas are smooth and flat, making the dark shape stand out more. If you like this kind of simple, bold color blocking, try looking up Suzan Frecon.
