This is an Acrylic on canvas painting done by Ed Ruscha, 2003. The masterful usage of color really has an eye snatching effect because of the great amount of contrast. The range of colors, going from bright yellows, blues and bits of green are similar to what one would see in many tropical birds and flowers. The darkest parts of the picture encase it, as the black is on top and bottom with light background and white words centered in the middle. The rhythm of the painting connects with the typography of diagonal, slanting lines leading you to the next part of the picture. Working with it's powerful imagery of snowy mountain tops, this piece is quite large, 60 x 60 inches, makes this piece quite imposing and magnificent.
