White lines dancing in printing ink

White Lines Dancing in Printing Ink is a colour lithograph on white paper produced by David Hockney working in collaboration with Tyler Graphics, New York. The composition comprises a curvilinear pattern in stark white derived from one continuous, looping line that snakes over a dark, blue and purple background. The blue and purple finish loosely at the edges and traces of splattered or dripped ink appear within the margins of the frame, particularly along the right side. The image was printed in an edition of thirty-five.
