About the Item
LATE AUTUMN, Original Signed Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Painting
30" x 40" x 2" (HxWxD) Oil on Canvas
Hand-signed and dated by the artist.
A large-format, subdued abstract expressionist painting by artist William O'Connor, this work features a muted color palette of beige and ochre with soft shades of purple, green, and dusty rose mixed in for further dimension. Much as the title suggests, this work has an autumnal feel to it, with earth-tones reminiscent of the leaves on the trees and the squashes that become abundant during the changing season. The work is expressive yet restrained, breeding both chaos with the scattered mark making and calm with its subtle use of color.
Artist Commentary:
If the viewer searches their memories, they will know what Late Autumn is. As an abstract artist, what I paint is a part of my internal self. As a young child in Nebraska, late autumn came on with a stiffening chill across the Great Plains. The harvest is in, and the corn stocks are plowed under.
About the Artist:
Beginning life in the heartland of America gave William O’Connor a sense of wonderment in the changing landscape and sky. The distinct seasons in Nebraska left indelible images for him to remember as a painter. The inspirations for his work often come from the recall of childhood memories in Lincoln and later on, life in Southern California. After exciting teenage years, there came a hitch in the US Navy serving his country. More images came from days on the open sea and fascinating foreign places. Subjects of his paintings may include: ancient myths; connections with animals and wildlife; historical places; as well as industrial images. The style and technique of his work evolved from the influence of Modernism and Abstract Expressionism as seen by the masters such as Willem de Kooning and Richard Diebenkorn. This type of painting allows William the freedom of expression especially with vibrant color, invented shapes, and fascinating details, to reveal his inner experience. Series are very prevalent in his work as well as triptychs, diptychs, and individual themes. While attending Otis Art Institute, LA Valley College, and Pasadena City College, William gained a fine art background during his studies of figure drawing, print making, sculpture, art history, ceramics, and other fundamental art courses. This experience served to drive him further into a deliberate pathway of eclectic study from several different institutions and by various professional artists. A great many afternoons during “closed to the public” hours, were spent studying and drawing from the Master’s paintings hanging in the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena. From this formidable background in fine art came the choice to concentrate solely on the traditional medium of oil paint.

This large-format oil painting by artist William O'Connor is reminiscent of the abstract expressionist painter Arshile Gorky.
