Abstract Expressionist Color Field Painting “The Age Of Ignition”

Description: Original abstract expressionist color field painting. The work measures 16” x 20”. The painting, like most of my work, was made with acrylic paint thinned with water. This painting is called “The Age of Ignition”. I created a “painting-within-painting” via the blue square. This technique is sort of a window the viewer uses to look inside the painting. Did you know that every painting has a soul? They do…and this painting’s soul is filled with energy, intellect, and goodwill. My artistic process involves pouring paint with different viscosity. The process is an exploration of color and texture. The paint and canvas form an important relationship as the painting develops. The centerpiece of my work is a stained canvas that results from a process of successive “color pours” The process requires patience because the beauty arises once the liquid acrylic, cut with water, has dried. The primary inspiration for my art is Helen Frankenthaler, perhaps the greatest American abstract expressionism artist. This was also informed by my visit to the Rothko Room in Washington, DC. My work involves color selection and blending. The style is called non-objective due to the fact that the art work doesn’t depict any particular place, person, or thing. The non-objective style of painting was popular in the 1940’s and 1950’s. My art is influenced by nature. I am a gardener and spend a great deal of time outdoors. The simple beauty of nature inspires my work and provides color ques. I am particularly pleased with this painting.
