A tightly composed study in gesture and contrast, Nice Work if You Can Get it builds pressure within a small frame. Swirling fields of sky blue and lavender ripple across a hot red ground, anchored by heavy black marks that cut through the center like snapped branches. Subtle yellow and peach flourishes offer relief along the edges, drawing the eye back into the tangle at the core. Though compact, the painting delivers a rich dialogue between control and spontaneity, packed into just 11 by 14 inches.
