Colourful Gestural Abstract – Painting On Paper
Artist: Unknown At Present
Description
An abstract painting on paper composed of broad, sweeping brushstrokes in deep blue, pale blue, crimson, yellow, olive green, black and muted pink. Overlapping bands of colour move diagonally and vertically across the cream-coloured ground, with exposed areas of paper separating the painted forms. The surface combines thin washes, dry-brush marks and thicker passages, revealing variations in texture and opacity. Darker shapes anchor the lower composition, while lighter strokes open up the upper section. Rather than depicting a recognisable subject, the work centres on colour, movement and the physical application of paint. Its gestural handling suggests an affinity with Abstract Expressionism, although no documented connection to a particular movement has been established. Sold without the mount shown in the photographs, allowing the sheet to be rolled and shipped in a tube. A colourful work offering a strong focal point when framed.
Artist Details
The artist has not been identified from the photographs. The reverse includes a printed stamp naming “Mrs. Bland”, but this should not be treated as an artist attribution.
Artist Influenced By / Similar Artists
As a visual comparison, the broad coloured gestures recall aspects of work by Pierre Soulages, Hans Hartung and Karel Appel. These are stylistic comparisons only; direct influence is unproven.
Style
Gestural abstraction, with overlapping brushwork, contrasting colours and varied paint textures.
Condition
The photographs show paper discolouration, creasing, edge wear and a visible horizontal tear extending inward from the right-hand edge. Craquelure is visible in several thicker painted passages. The reverse shows staining and evidence of previous mounting. Please examine the photographs carefully.
Frame / Mount
Sold unframed and without the mount or backing shown. The artwork will be supplied rolled in a shipping tube.
Packing, Shipping and insurance from Barcelona calculated at checkout.
