Description:
This painting by Resnick is a highly abstract, gestural piece with the application of paint being thinner in some places than in others. There is no focal point in this piece with the colors and shapes radomly placed quickly on the canvas. The colors vary from pink, green, grey, yellow, orange, blue, red, black, and white. Towards the right side there are five different shapes where the paint becomes recognizably thinner than the rest of the painting.
