Description |
50 of 61 in Progressive Proof Series Wayne Kimball (1943) is a printmaker and professor of the fine arts. Kimball's artworks are all done using the lithograph printing process due to the media's intense color combinations, wash-like textures, and crayon tones. His art is small in size allowing him to work more intimately with his pieces and include intricate details, some with symbolic meaning. Kimball's artworks are meant to be seen with the viewer in mind and thus are devoid of concrete ideas, focusing more on conceptual thought. He leaves his work open-ended so that the viewer can interpret the meaning behind the work themselves. His work is influenced by Northern Renaissance paintings, Islamic and Indian structures, and Medieval imagery. This print is a combination of layered prints for "A Portrayal of Its Maker (series of 61 prints)". The progress shown on prints forty eight through forty nine are displayed on top of print forty seven. A brown coloring is present within the dark shading on the chair's surface. The same brown color is upon the duck's feathers across from the chair. Underneath the leafy plant, the stem of the plant is now color in with a brown hue, although the top if still devoid of color. The rest of the print is the same as shown in print forty seven. |
