Mitchell Becker emerged into the art world of late 1950s Chicago, between gestures of Abstract Expressionism and declarations about the "death of painting." The hot names of his youth, such as Willem De Kooning, Mark Rothko, and Larry Rivers, provided him with interest and challenges for years to come, and his awe for them is still evident in his voice to date, many years after drawing away from them. This work is reminiscent of the work of Saul Steinberg and Philip Guston.

"Transition, Series 1, No. 4" - Watercolor Figurative Illustration
Located in Soquel, CA
Subtly shaded abstract figurative illustration by Elsa Warnick (American, 1942-2013). Two adult and three baby figures are rendered with subtle tan shading, against an abstract background with geometric shapes and swirling ribbons. One of the two adult figures is laying down, while the other appears to be jumping or dancing. Notable is the skillful use of negative space to balance the composition.
Signed and dated "Warnick 1982" in the lower right corner.
Signed, titled, and dated with materials information on verso.
Presented in a silver aluminum frame.
Frame size: 23.5"H x 31.25"W
Paper size: 23.25"H x 31"W
Elsa Warnick (American, 1942-2013) was born and raised in Tacoma, Washington. She moved to Portland to attend the Reed College/Museum Art School joint five year program.

Some of her pieces are held in the Portland Art Museum’s collection.
