Cardboard, paint, ink
17.75" x 23"

White, ochre, sky blue, and sage pigments are clustered and layered at the center of this irregularly shaped No Fishing Sign. The word “TODAY” sits on the surface, crossed out with a line of red oil pastel. The word “NO” reads clearly, while the object of prohibition is obscured entirely by broad, diamond hatches in ochre. Printed branding graphics from a clothing company peek through, visibly crossed out with charcoal.
