DescriptionThis is a colorful, abstract, vertically oriented painting with the predominant colors being shades of blue and red. The lower half of the canvas is mostly red shades, with two oval shapes on the proper left side. There is a large blue shape in the middle of the painting which extends upwards in both directions to the left and right. There are washes of green, yellow, red, and blue throughout the painting and large gestural paint strokes. The composition is dense, and the canvas is entirely covered in paint.
