Mystery Painting Description

Mystery Painting
recreated by our Walter Hays partners
From the thick line made from the yellow triangle make an invisible horizontal line to the right side. From there make a thick line vertically all the way to the top. Connect the two vertical lines with a thick horizontal line at the top of the line on the right. From the line you just made go a bit down and make a horizontal line all the way to the left. You will just have made a triangle. Color it red. The rest of the left hand side of the vertical line is pale gray. To the top left hand side of the red triangle should be a quadrilateral. It is pale gray. From the middle of the part that you colored pale gray on the right hand side of the main vertical line, make a horizontal line all the way to the left. You will have just made a square and a triangle. The square is white and the triangle is pale gray.
This painting is called Diamond Painting in Red, Yellow, and Blue. It was painted by Piet Mondrian. It was painted sometime between 1921 to 1925. It is 56 by 56 inches. It is in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.
Analysis
by Brian and Michael
The black triangle was done well. The yellow triangle was good, and so was the main vertical line. The thick black line on the left hand side was great.
We forgot to tell our partners to make a blue triangle on the bottom left hand side. We forgot to tell them that the painting is a square on its point.
