About the Item

Large-Scale Multicolored Color Block Abstraction in Acrylic on Canvas Abstract composition by Ellis Hopkins (American, b. 1952). In this exuberant abstract composition, Hopkins orchestrates a vibrant collision of color and form, channeling the visual language of post-war abstraction. Sweeping arcs and bold blocks of pigment—ranging from cobalt blue and crimson to chartreuse and violet—pulse across the canvas with assertive energy. The interplay between curved and angular shapes suggests controlled spontaneity, echoing the gestural legacy of artists like Franz Kline, Lee Krasner and Amy Sillman while maintaining a distinct and playful chromatic rhythm. Signed "Ellis" lower right corner. No frame. From a collection of the artist's work. Canvas size: 46"H x 57"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. Exhibitions: 1981, Monterey Conference Center, Monterey, CA 1974, Pacific Grove Art Center, Pacific Grove, CA
