The image features bold lines and overlapping shapes creating movement. The word "RED" is placed on a textured, dark backdrop. A vertical stroke runs through the center. Below are the words "YELLOW" and "BLUE." There is a semi-circular form with dot patterns to the left. Scattered shapes across the image suggest a scattering of stones or an abstract terrain.
