Untitled is a 1960 oil by Thomas Sills, a Abstract Expressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a vibrant display of color and texture. The background is a deep orange, with large green shapes scattered throughout. These shapes are irregular and abstract, with rough edges and varying sizes. They appear to be cut out of a different material and placed on top of the orange background, creating a sense of depth and dimension. Upon closer inspection, the green shapes reveal subtle variations in texture and tone. Some areas are smooth and flat, while others have a more rough and tactile quality. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and movement, as if the shapes are floating or drifting across the canvas.

Thomas Sills was a painter and collagist and a participant in the New York Abstract Expressionist movement.
