About the Item
This oil pastel drawing by Paul Reed uses colors such as burnt orange and browns to convey a sense of depth in the composition. The center of this work features three, off-white right-angled triangular shapes. Two of the three triangles mirror one another. The dark blue blots of oil pastel are complementary to the bright but burnt oranges to the middle right center of the composition. The painting is newly framed in black wood with archival materials.
Paul Allen Reed (b. 1919, d. 2015) was an artist based in Washington D.C. who is remembered now as one of the original six members of the Washington Color School. After attending the Corcoran School of Art, he moved to New York City where he began working as a graphic designer. His work can be described as both geometric and balanced and his compositions are inherently based on his interpretation of color theory and relationship to form. His work has been shown in museums and galleries all over the nation, most predominantly in New York City, Washington D.C., and Chicago.

original signed pastel drawing, blue and salmon 1980s
By Valerie Christell
Located in Milwaukee, WI
Valerie Christell's large pastel drawings from the early 1980s take the landscape and make it abstract. In them, she tries to emulate the experience of seeing the land while driving at high speed on the back of a motorcycle. The resulting imagery is rendered in energetic and gestural line work that morphs into large fields of color. This example, 'Orange/Black abstract,' takes on the appearance of nighttime, lit only by the light of the motorcycle headlight...
