About this work

This painting shows a simple yellow shape inside a rough square outline. The background is mostly blank white, with just a few faint pencil lines. The yellow looks like a half-moon or a slice of something, but it’s not detailed. The artist used just two colors and kept everything very clean and minimal. It’s almost like a sketch, but the yellow stands out clearly. Next, look up Wolfgang Laib to see more of his work.
