Color Field Painting




Studying color fields. Reproductions of paintings by Jules Olitski's Tin Lizzie Green, and Mark Rothko's #34, that I did by glazing, using layers of oil paint mixed with Res-n-gel and mineral spirits. American painter Helen Frankenthaler is credited with pioneering this new technique, in which color gained primacy and became both composition and subject matter. I am learning this technique from Carlene Frances http://www.carlenefrances.com/
