I painted some abstract art inspired by Rothko and United Airlines.

An artist created a series of abstract paintings titled UN(T)IT(L)ED 1974, 1993, and 2004 that represent the sea and sky at different times of day based on iconic United Airlines liveries. Inspired by a Reddit comment explaining how the Battleship Grey livery symbolized the first light of dawn during overnight flights, the artist recognized that each livery could represent the ocean and sky under varying conditions. Each painting features a silver edge representing an aircraft door.
