Sol LeWitt — Irregular, Angular Brushstrokes
Sol LeWitt

Irregular, Angular Brushstrokes

A dynamic interplay of layered, overlapping brushstrokes rendered in rich, complex color fills the composition with energetic yet controlled movement. Sol LeWitt's systematic approach to artmaking translates into a series of angular, irregular marks that, while appearing spontaneous, reflect his signature conceptual framework. The aquatint medium lends the work a velvety depth and tonal richness, emphasizing the textural quality of each gestural stroke across the Somerset paper.

Etching and aquatint in colors, on Somerset paper, with full margins,
