About this work

This painting shows a wild mix of shapes and colors. There’s a red spiral, a blue circle with gold swirls, and a green spiral with a dark center. A white cloth with black X’s sits in the bottom right, and a brown line cuts across it. The background is dark with splashes of purple and yellow dots. The artist used bold, uneven strokes to make everything look swirly and alive. The colors clash but feel exciting together. Next, check out Wyndham Tryon to see more of his energetic style.
