"Full Cup, " 2023 Large Vertical Abstract Painting by Lowell Boyers

About the Item

Full Cup (2023) by Lowell Boyers A Large Vertical Abstract Painting Full Cup (2023) by Lowell Boyers is a luminous, high-energy vertical composition—an explosion of color that feels both intimate and cosmic. Against a rich, inky ground of black and brown, bursts of hot pink, gold, pale peach, deep mauve, and red ignite the canvas, forming a radiant core of motion and vitality. The painting’s composition rises and expands along the vertical axis. The lower half is grounded by prong-like formations in soft gray-blue, reaching upward toward the center’s chromatic eruption. From that nucleus, color explodes into the top half of the canvas with gestural sweeps of mauve-red and gold—like the blossoming crown of a flowering tree, the eruption of a volcano at dusk, or radiant foliage catching twilight light. The effect is both organic and otherworldly—suggesting a forest coming alive at night, a sky blooming with celestial bodies, or an underwater garden teeming with motion. Dots and circular forms float throughout the atmosphere of the painting, like pollen, stars, or soundwaves suspended in space—echoes from some original pulse. These elements reinforce the sense of genesis and emotional resonance that characterizes Boyers’ work. A New York-based artist with a B.A. from the Rhode Island School of Design and an M.F.A. from Yale, Boyers brings intellectual and emotional depth to his paintings. “I use raw canvas like the template of our mind,” he writes, “which before perception is a futile but empty slate that we fill and dissipate all phenomena into and onto.” In Full Cup, that philosophy is realized through spontaneous, unrepeatable gestures that feel like captured energy—fleeting moments of thought or feeling given physical form. The work is finished with the canvas wrapped tightly around the stretcher and painted along the edges in matching ground tones, resulting in a seamless, immersive experience. Full Cup is not merely a celebration of color and form—it is a meditation on fullness, emergence, and transformation. Its layered composition and vibrant palette transcend style and era, bringing emotional depth, visual power, and poetic atmosphere to any space it inhabits.
