Inspiration from Lester, Again

I can't let this photo stay in the camera, I must share it. It is an ink and watercolor (possibly) by Lester Beall, perhaps in the 1940s. The linear quality, coupled with the red organic shape is worth a study. And splitting the background in two colors lands it on the earth somewhere. At least for my eye.

  1. It reminds me of your work in so many ways.The shapes, the lines, the red and black focus on a lighter background all stand out. Oh yes, it's also GORGEOUS and intriguing!
