Answer 2

Geometric and abstract best describe Aarion douglass's painting song of the tower.  

Explanation:

• His painting holds a two-dimensional art form incorporated with a narrow range of colors. He used compositional elements and shapes like eccentric or concentric circles radiating beams so as to create a dramatic focal point along with the same acoustic movement.
• The abstract elements he used, has enhanced the narratives of his painting thus making it more emotionally impactful. This painting, however, holds a strong pictorial description of African Americans embracing out of the south during the great migration.
