A vertically oriented color lithograph on textured, off-white paper features two central abstract forms. An elongated, flame-like shape in muted ochre floats above a larger, blurred rectangular mass in warm terracotta. Wispy horizontal streaks and small dabs of both colors drift around these shapes, leaving large swathes of the page blank. This minimalist arrangement highlights the contrast between the organic forms and the grainy texture of the paper.
