Abstract Expressionist Artwork With Red And Orange Strokes Appraisal

Abstract Expressionist Artwork with Red and Orange Strokes

This appears to be a large, square-format abstract art print, framed under glass with a light-colored wooden frame and a white mat. The artwork itself features a central vertical axis composed of numerous intersecting lines and strokes, predominantly in shades of deep red, maroon, and burnt orange, suggestive of a dense, organic form or concentrated energy. Complementing these central elements are lighter, more scattered strokes and drips in similar hues, as well as some lighter grey or black lines, extending outwards from the core. The distribution of marks includes both sharp, angular strokes and longer, more fluid drips, creating a dynamic sense of movement. There are some circular or swirling elements noticeable around the central vertical mass. The medium appears to be some form of ink or paint, possibly a monoprint or a screen print, given the consistent pigment and stroke quality. The background is a stark, clean white, which effectively highlights the vibrant colors of the artwork. A signature or marking is visible in the lower right corner, appearing to be in the same red/maroon pigment as some of the artwork's strokes, which could indicate the artist's signature or edition number. The print is in excellent visible condition; the mat appears clean, and the frame shows no obvious signs of wear or damage. The reflective surface of the glass indicates it is likely plain glass, not anti-reflective. The style is distinctly abstract expressionist or gestural, suggesting a contemporary period, likely late 20th or early 21st century. The overall craftsmanship of the framing seems professional and of good quality, with neat corners and appropriate proportions for the artwork.
