A graphic artwork featuring a stylized representation of a road with a crosswalk leading to a split in the path, marked by a blue line. The left side is a dead end while the right side has a black arrow indicating a turn. The sky is depicted in blue with a textured effect at the top, and the grass is a flat green color.
A vibrant geometric abstract artwork featuring a combination of orange and blue triangles on the top half, with a complex pattern of black, white, and beige triangles on the bottom half. The piece is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
A four-panel artwork depicting a stylized nighttime road scene with a large orange circle in each panel, representing either the moon or a setting sun. The top two panels show the circle with the word "GULF" across it, resembling a vintage gas station sign, while the bottom two panels show a silhouette of a fuel tanker truck within the circle. The road stretches to the horizon with a dashed center line, flanked by dark silhouettes of trees or hills. Each panel has a signature and edition number on the bottom right.
A colorful abstract geometric print featuring a central dark cross surrounded by various brightly colored shapes in red, yellow, blue, and green. The artwork is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
A geometric abstract painting featuring a composition of black and white shapes with shades of gray, creating a dynamic and fragmented visual space. The artwork is signed and dated in the bottom right corner.
A geometric abstract artwork featuring a central square with lines extending to the edges of the canvas, creating a perspective effect. The square has a smaller, concentric square in blue, yellow, and green. The background is divided into blocks of color with a bright blue strip at the top, a lime green on the left side, and black along the bottom edge. The piece is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
