My Artist: Morris Louis
Born: November 28, 1912 - Baltimore, Maryland
Died: September 7, 1962 -Washington
What did he do:
Morris Louis became one of the leading figures of Color Field painting, along with his contemporaries Kenneth Noland and Helen Frankenthaler. In his short yet prolific career, most of which he spent in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., Louis continually experimented with method and medium, manipulating large canvases in creative ways to control the flow and stain of his acrylic paints. His mature style, characterised by layered veils and rivulets of poured acrylic paint on untreated canvases, makes his paintings some of the most iconic works of Color Field painting.
This was 2 of his painting that he drawed.
This is what he called Veil Paintings of his own.
