Blue With Red, Yellow And Orange by Sam Francis

A single cobalt rectangle anchors the center. This is *Blue With Red, Yellow And Orange*, Sam Francis’s quiet rebellion against symmetry. Thin washes of red and orange bleed into the edges, as if the brush never quite lifted. White gaps peek through, letting the paper breathe. The blue stays contained, a rectangle that refuses to dissolve into the chaos around it. Hang it above a pale sofa, where the white matting can echo those accidental gaps and the blue can hold its own against the room’s clutter.
