This painting shows a composition of colorful geometric shapes and bold lines creating the abstract form of a seated person. The painting is made up of broad, flat areas of color, with different tones of brown and tan for the person’s skin and a variety of vivid colors like orange, green, red, and blue in the background. The skin-toned shapes give the impression of a person lounging on a chair, turned to the right, with their legs crossed and one arm resting on the back of the chair. Their chin and neck are visible, but the rest of their face is not. They don't appear to wear any clothing or shoes.
