Yellows — Fine Art

Yellow bands and patches sit across the sheet in Yellows - 1969. The paint handles in broad strokes and thin washes, a way John Hoyland worked through the late abstract colour paintings. The picture reads as a stack of yellow tones rather than a single flat field.

The fine art print is set in a frame with a back panel. The frame holds the edges straight and the back panel keeps the sheet flat.

On a hallway wall near a mirror, the yellow tones catch the morning light. From the stairs you see the broad bands first, then the thinner marks lower down.
