About the Item
Bay Area Cubist Figure in Oil on Canvas by Ellis Hopkins (American, b. 1952).
This vibrant cubist-inspired composition depicts a seated figure abstracted into interlocking planes of color and geometric forms. Rich blues and purples dominate the canvas, punctuated by accents of green, red, and ochre that energize the composition. The figure’s posture is suggested through angled shapes and overlapping planes, emphasizing movement and tension rather than realistic detail. Areas of sharp contrast between opaque blocks of color and subtle tonal transitions create a dynamic rhythm across the surface. The artist’s approach evokes the expressive legacy of Cubism, reimagining the human form as a harmonious interplay of geometry and color. This piece invites viewers to engage with the figure through abstraction, discovering new facets of form with each glance.
Signed "Hopkins" on verso (stretcher).
Canvas size: 36" H x 24" W
Ellis Hopkins (American, b. 1952) was born in Lawrence, Kansas, but spent most of her life in California. She lived in Monterey and Carmel Valley, where she was a prolific painter, focusing mostly on gestural abstraction, color blocking, and abstracted still lifes. She studied at the Carmel Art Institute.
