Composition in blue tones, gray, black, red, yellow, rose. Thick texture. The composition consists of four amoeboid shapes in bright colors against dark blue background. These shapes are irregular contours with winding. The lower half of the composition is almost completely occupied by the largest amoeboid form, consisting of various light colors; in what might be called the upper on the left corner in this way there is flower suggestion or sheet; in the central area there is a darker color region; the bottom on the left corner thereby forming parallel lines comma; the superior species sheet corner in the darker shade of the entire composition, including this sheet is not entirely contained in the amoeboid shape, becoming also bet against the background. In the upper area of the composition on the left, amoeboid flat shape, characterized by three projections like fingers, superimposing determined in part by amoeboid shape which is the upper limit of the composition. This third form is also in light shade, with several dark dots and a small and dark-colored rectangle, which is not entirely contained in the same amoeboid shape. A little below this third way, but on the right there is a fourth amoeboid shape, also in light shade, all filled with dark dashes.
