There is craquelure present throughout the work, especially in the blue sections as well as in the upper yellow, red and blue squiggly line element. There is also flaking and raised areas of paint in the joint, painted orange, on the left side of the work. A light dust has settled in some of the crevices.

"The gradual change from planar surfaces to more volumetric surfaces is a topological problem, basically the exploration of more intricate or more complicated surfaces to be worked on, i.e. painted on. The expansion of surfaces available to abstraction is what has kept me going."
Frank Stella
