This work of art is called Chaos No. 5.  The painting appears to be random colors
and shapes painted on the canvas. There is nothing random about it. Detailed rules
where developed for the shapes and color. The shapes where created by drawing
smooth flowing lines from one side of the canvas to the other. The colors are three
primary colors expanded to secondary and tertiary colors. The colors where applied
so that no two colors of the same hue are touching one another. Each color has at
least one contrasting color next to it. There are some shapes filled with gray colors
made from the primary colors.
