Description

A square format close-up features concentric circles created from layers of paper, set against an ivory background. The rings transition from yellow at the center, through orange, red, pink, and finally purple at the outer edges. Each layer is meticulously cut to expose the colors beneath, forming a gradient of warm to cool tones. The color shift creates a sense of depth. The paper's texture adds a tactile quality to the visual. The composition is minimalist. The lighting is even, highlighting the smoothness of the paper surfaces and the precision of the cuts.
