In this work, the geometry or the line has taken over the leading role as a design element. The lines in neon colors cover the entire painting like a colorful lattice work. Despite the fact that at first sight the painting appears very simple, it is very complex and requires a lot of attention, precise planning and repeated long drying times. As in her previous works, the artist first drew bold lines with a water-soluble graphite pencil, which she then strengthened, accentuated and fixed with a gel painting medium. After drying, the first layer of paint was applied and allowed to dry. Then the first shades of blue and green were applied with wide brushstrokes, left to dry, flowing acrylic paints over it, left to dry, another layer was applied with wide brushstrokes and pasty acrylic paint and so on. In some layers, spatulas were used to scrape into the fresh paint.
