DescriptionAt the top center of this print, it appears that two brushes, loaded with white "paint" have been pressed into the surface. "Paint" flows vertically from these two shapes down the entire surface and appears to run off the lower edge. Underneath and on either side of these two primary components are other similar motifs, in softer shades of gray. Drips and splatters enliven the surface.Copyright© Pat Steir
