Black and White
Gouache on paper in a stylized abstract composition: a pale, simplified figure with a black hair-like stroke bends at left, and a long white arm reaches to the right, ending in a round, dotted form. Black dots line a horizontal band over a lavender field, with small white dots along the bottom edge.
