Cityscape No. 1 presents a dynamic interpretation of urban architecture through a confident arrangement of geometric forms. Vertical blocks in rich hues of teal, red, yellow, blue, gray, and green rise distinctly against a vibrant yellow backdrop, creating a striking contrast that energizes the composition. The surfaces of the buildings are punctuated by repeated rectangular window shapes rendered in white and dark marks, lending a rhythmic texture that draws the eye across the canvas. Bold black outlines articulate the edges and intersections of each form, reinforcing their structural presence while maintaining an abstract sensibility.

The piece balances a playful modernist approach with a sense of controlled spontaneity, inviting viewers to reconsider familiar cityscapes through a lens of abstraction and color. The layering of paint marker, oil stick, and charcoal enriches the surface with subtle variations in texture, adding depth without overwhelming the composition’s clarity. This fusion of materials and deliberate mark-making gives the artwork a tactile quality that complements its vibrant palette and geometric precision, capturing the energy and complexity of an urban environment distilled into essential form and color.
