Ellsworth Kelly was an American artist who worked with many different media. His famous plant drawings, such as the one above, are minimalistic opposites to his boldly colored paintings. His abstract, bright paintings are what Kelly is usually known for, but Professor Comberg pointed me towards him because of his minimalist drawings, saying that my project 1.3 reminded him of them. I can agree with the comparison, I see it a bit as well.
“I have worked to free shape from its ground, and then to work the shape so that it has a definite relationship to the space around it,” Ellsworth explained. It’s interesting because you can see this with both of hid very different types of work.
