Leighton Smith Abstract Expressionistic Mixed Media on Paper Portrait
Item Details
An original Abstract Expressionistic mixed media on paper work by listed New York artist Leighton Smith (20th Century). The colorful and vibrant work depicts a black woman lying on a striped towel while sunning on a beach. To the right background are sand dunes with grasses, to the left are waves breaking on the beach, with a green ocean and blue cloud-filled sky to the distance. The woman’s form has an exuberant energy, with her outstretched limbs which seem to be dancing. The clouds, sand dunes and waves are rendered with bold strokes of color, complementing the figure’s movement. The painting is unframed, mounted on board and signed to the lower right corner with Leighton Smith’s monogram. Leighton Smith is listed in Who Was Who in American Art.
