Description

Painting of an abstract figure lounging on a ledge with various produces around them. Ranging from chewing tobacco, a Gramaphone, a sickle, a book, etc. The colors are solid, and the lines are precise. The imagery and the figure seem dark due to the deep colors of the sky, the dark wall and the dark brown drapery. The colors seem to clash making this piece seem uneasy.

Subject

The main subject is a bright yellow figure who is draped in a neutral brown cloth seemingly to follow its shape. Juxtaposed with the flowing lines and shapes in the cloth, there are breaks where geometric shapes and seemingly bird motifs intrude on the fabric. The yellow figure is smoking a pope and had a purple rope wrapped around its body. They are sitting on a ledge surrounded by various other objects.
