Pseudo-abstract, I suppose. Thoughts?

I like the shape of the forms in #1 better than in #2. I might call it quasi-abstract.
(I guess "shape of form" is redundantly repetitious.)

Nice, did you get the inspiration from Andrea Camilleri's novel "The Shape of Water" (La forma dell'acqua)?

I should have thought of that. I'm a fan of Camilleri (in translation).

Me too but my Italian is not that good so I use my personal translator when she's around!

I am insufficiently well-read, sadly. Montalbano was filmed for TV in Italian and shown over here with subtitles. I tried a couple but it didn't really grab me. For detective stories set in Italy, I've found nothing to beat Michael Dibdin's Aurelio Zen novels. He's a Venetian working in Rome, but he gets about a bit: one of them (Vendetta, from memory) was set in Sicily.
