A Composition of Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue

Ever since I first saw the works of Piet Mondrian while visiting New York years ago, I have enjoyed them.  There is something about the clean lines and primary colors that make a sophisticated, modern statement.  I want one. But there are two problems, the first is that I can't afford real Mondrian at the moment, and the poster copy will simply, not do.

I have always enjoyed artistic endeavors (mostly related to food), but haven't ever been even a decent sketch artist or painter. But after seeing a friends' (kudos to Alan Granberg) Mondrian inspired effort, I knew that even with my primitive painting skills, I could do it too.

For about $80 dollars in art supplies and 4 hours of effort, this is what you get.
