Abstract
The painting uses the color compliments yellow and purple to create an optical vibration. There is no ground, no vantage point, and no context that defines space. The effect is a kind of astral floating electric image.
The image was sketched in a lucid state while listening to music. It was discovered later that the sketch offered a good opportunity for a color experiment. It also draws on inspiration from Inuit art at the Denver Art Museum.
