About the Item
This is a unique watercolor study by Greek neon artist Chryssa. Although it does not closely resemble any of her known completed works, the forms are similar to her series "Analysis of the Letter Y". This could, perhaps, be a study for a meditation on another letter altogether. Red, yellow, blue, and green all show up regularly in her larger neon pieces, often together and in sequence within a single piece. This work is signed and dated by the artist in pencil on the upper right.
