Willis-McCorkle Contemporary Abstract Acrylic on Canvas Painting

This contemporary abstract painting is executed in acrylic or oil on a stretched artist canvas. The composition features a complex, swirling network of gestural brushstrokes and impasto techniques, displaying a rich palette of metallic gold, deep charcoal gray, forest green, burgundy, and highlights of stark white. The application of paint is thick and tactile, creating a physical texture that enhances the visual movement of the interlocking curvilinear shapes. The work suggests an organic, topographical, or perhaps anatomical inspiration while remaining firmly non-representational. The canvas appears to be unframed, showing paint wrap around the edges which is common in modern gallery-wrap presentations. While no signature is immediately visible on the face, the provided context links the piece to Willis-McCorkle, suggesting it may be a collaborative or specifically attributed mid-to-late 20th or 21st-century work. The condition shows no significant cracking or flaking, though there is some light reflection on the surface indicating a glossy or satin varnish layer. The craftsmanship demonstrates a strong understanding of color theory and balance in abstract expressionism.
