Gouache on paper  
10 x 8 inches

A gouache—or opaque watercolor—painting of three transparent pink organic-shaped enclosures with solid pink square bases; each enclosure has a dark pink outline. Green and yellow rock-like shapes are encased within the enclosures. The foremost enclosure rests on a round gray-blue circle that has squiggly white and straight red lines on its surface. Two smaller enclosures are placed directly behind each side of the enclosure in the foreground with similar contents. Organic shapes outlined in red and yellow rise behind the enclosures. The organic shapes overlap a conglomerate of gray geometric shapes just right of center in the background.
