Ralph Stout Art

Abstract minimalist color block painting on panel "Untitled 3", painted by Ralph Stout in 2019 16 x 16 x 2 inches, acrylic on panel Sides are painted black, additional framing is optional Ready to hang as is This abstract minimalist, mid-century modern style painting on canvas was made by East Hampton based artist, Ralph Stout, in 2019. The composition features an interlocking pattern of dark teal, blue and black. The painting is on panel with black painted sides. The artist's signature is located on the back. Ralph Stout refers to his approach to abstract painting as “incremental adventurism”. This sums up Stout’s calculated combos of vivid pigments and defined forms layered on top of fluid underdrawings. The artist first creates space using simple linework with graphite pencil; intertwining curvy lines or straight intersecting angles are drawn in varying densities. He then fills the spaces with blocks of pure, vivid color without any real detail other than the outlines of each form that begins to appear. Each mass is connected in stark juxtaposition using intense contrast of color and line. It is the delicate tension between the background and foreground that reveals a solid graphic that is full of vibration.
