Abstract modern painting by Paul Reed

Original gouache on paper painting by a famous American modern artist Paul Allen Reed (b. 1919). Paul Reed is an influential modern artist and was a member of the Washington Color School. Artist's works are in well known museums and collections around the country, such as the National Art Gallery in Washington, DC.

This is an original work combining organic shapes with straight blue lines fusing into the background in beautiful pastel colors. The contrast between strict geometry cutting through the natural engulfing shapes creates tension and movement in the work. Singed in upper right.
