Stars and Stripes
2021

A geometric abstract painting featuring a symmetrical pattern of dark diagonal stripes creating a series of triangles and parallelograms, with a central diamond shape where the patterns converge. The artwork is composed of shades of black and gray, creating an optical illusion of depth and movement. The painting is framed in a simple black frame.
