BEAUTIFUL FUNERALS is a handpainted doublestepprinted film composed of 1 dense blackness variously punctuated by brilliantly colored jewelflowerlike shapes AND 2 interruptive white sections which are fuzzily dotted with blurred whites and crisscrossed by black brushstrokes and hardedge straight black and white lines Finally there is a brilliant pinkish flare veined with curled blue lines which engenders a resolution between these above described alternating modes colors in the straightline sections lines among the artifice of flowers a kind of dark latticeform which knits the two modes gray and colored clouds which correlate them
