Countryside

Description:

Watercolor on paper of an abstract pattern in a mixture of warm and cool hues. The viewer's eye is immediately brought to the interlocking lines in the center right. Three sets of three lines cross in the upper middle region of the painting at obtuse angles creating rhombus shapes. From below, several strokes of color recede into the distance as well as a series of dots. A large obtuse angle contains a bright green color above. Handwritten on the reverse reads: "Countryside."
