Gray, red, sky blue, green, burnt orange, and yellow abstract geometric painting by Houston, TX artist, John Ross Palmer. This painting resembles Palmer's paintings from his early 2000 work, the Oxford Series. Unsigned. Unframed but framing options are available. The Oxford style was born in the mid-2000s after Palmer took a winter trip to London. After being moved by the history and formality of the British society during his journey, the paintings born in the aftermath contained a rigid structure. The canvas was often divided into quadrants with splashes of color (red, green, or yellow) in the center. The most tell-tale sign of the Oxford style is a background color of brown for all or part of the canvas. With the Classic Oxford style pieces, it is not uncommon to find a realistic trigger such as an arrow or a black-and-white checkerboard grid. With the Modern Oxford style, Palmer shows more fluidity and less structure. Lighter blues and purples appear. It’s similar to the evolution of the Modern Carnival style – as the artist matures, so does the confidence expressed through the style. Artist Biography: Whether the design is on canvas, metal, wood or paper, Houston Artist John Ross Palmer’s artwork is a testament to his energy, creativity, and passion for life. As Palmer the individual continues to grow, his artwork also maintains a beautiful evolution. From what started as two-dimensional abstract paintings on canvas, his depth of art offered in his Houston, Texas Art Gallery now includes original artwork on custom boxes, furniture, ceiling murals, salvage wood, neon, ceramics, jewelry, unique merchandise, and gifts. His inspiration for the art comes from his travels abroad as well as his local Houston Heights...

Abstract, 1987 Hand signed and dated verso Not sure of technique. this might be a monotype or monoprint with hand painting. This might be a self portrait. Stanley Boxer (1926-May 8, 2000) was an American abstract expressionist artist best known for thickly painted abstract works of art. He was also an accomplished sculptor and printmaker. He received awards from the Guggenheim Fellowship and the National Endowment for the Arts. Boxer was born in New York City, and began his formal education after World War II, when he left the Navy and studied at the Art Students League of New York.

Boxer himself was adamant in rejecting this stylistic label. Over the years, he remained loyal to the materially dense abstract mode on which his reputation rested.. Art critic Grace Glueck wrote "Never part of a movement or trend, though obviously steeped in the language of Modernism, the abstract painter Stanley Boxer was a superb manipulator of surfaces, intensely bonding texture and color." In 1953 Boxer had his first solo exhibition of paintings in New York City, and showed regularly thereafter until his death.
