Dox Thrash

Philadelphia
c. 1940–1945

A vibrant and abstract watercolor painting featuring a collage of various scenes and elements. The composition includes a fiery sun, futuristic vehicles, architectural structures, human figures, and musical notes, all interwoven with a sense of movement and energy. The use of bright colors and dynamic shapes creates a dreamlike and surreal atmosphere.
