Note: This artwork is by the American abstract expressionist painter Paul Jenkins, who was a student of the artist Yasuo Kuniyoshi. This painting is a typical example of Jenkinss style, achieved through his eschewing of the paintbrush, which left the paint to seep, pool and drip across the canvas. Jenkinss work, inspired by artists such as Jackson Pollock and his close friend Mark Rothko, can be firmly located in the abstract impressionist movement which shaped subsequent American art.
Jenkinss work is on display in locations throughout the USA and across the world, including in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., the Tate in London, and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.
