Abstract architectural painting featuring a rhythmic band of arched forms, an architectural arcade motif, painted in bold white and cobalt blue against a textured backdrop of terracotta, moss green, and pale aqua. Vertical brushstrokes elongate the arches like slender columns, each accentuated by a trail of delicate gold dots tracing their curves. The composition evokes the formality of classical architecture with a modern painterly looseness.
