Large, irregular shapes in bold colors fill the corners of the canvas. A vivid yellow shape resembling a slanted triangle is in the bottom left, and a deep blue shape curves like the corner of a sail in the bottom right. A green patch in the upper left points inward, and a rust-red shape in the top right curves gently. The remaining canvas is a neutral off-white, contrasting with the colored shapes.
