A major figure in the Color Field movement, this painter developed a distinctive style characterized by the use of poured paint on large canvases. Early works featured symbols and rectangular forms, but the later canvas works exhibited a more fluidity of color and shape. The artist's techniques were influential in the post-World War II abstract painting scene. This painter was associated with the Washington Color School and contributed to the movement's emphasis on the interaction of color and light.
