This painting is an example of Letain's newer works, which omits the fields of white primer so characteristic of her oeuvre until now. Colored fields of bright red and blue dominate this canvas, which Letain considers as a type of sculptural material into which she carves with her paintbrush. The dense and saturated colors vibrate when resting side by side, creating an energy that is both sharp and intense. Letain does not use a ruler, and some brushstrokes are visible, leaving corrections, mistakes and painted movement highly visible.
