DescriptionThe image is a non-objective abstract divided in half visually with the lower half consisting of yellow, coral, orange, maroon, navy, and dark purple squarish shapes of varying sizes piled closely together. The colors go from brighter to deeper as they move from the center to the bottom. The upper half is blue tones that are darker in the center and lightens as it moves to the edges. The quality of the work is painterly; the shapes have soft edges and the colors blend into each other, particularly in the bottom of the canvas, where the shapes seem to be reflected.
