Horizontal bands of colour stack up the page and read, by suggestion, as dunes or a distant horizon. The composition belongs to the line of stacked bands that Mark Rothko developed from 1949 onward, that the late Ukiyo-e bokashi gradient explored decades earlier through hand-drawn colour, and that Agnes Martin pared back further with her quiet grid washes from the 1960s.
The print reads as four or five wet glaze layers — sand, a soft peach, a low warm grey, a final pale band at the top. The edges between the bands are wet-in-wet, with a light bleed into one another. The palette stays in the warm desert range, without sharp contrast.
