Arbres (Black and Yellow)

A vibrant and energetic lithograph by Abstract Expressionist painter Joan Mitchell, *Arbres (Black and Yellow)* captures her signature gestural style through bold, sweeping strokes of black and yellow on crisp Arches paper. The composition evokes the organic forms of trees through dynamic, layered marks that pulse with movement and raw emotional intensity. Printed in colors on the full sheet, the work reflects Mitchell's deep connection to nature and her ability to translate landscape into pure, expressive abstraction.
