Aquatint on Twinrocker paper // Donald Sultan’s Playing Card (Three of Diamonds), created in 1990, is an aquatint print on Twinrocker paper that presents a minimalist yet impactful representation of a familiar card symbol. The three diamonds are rendered in a striking red, arranged in a standard formation on a soft, textured background. The subtle variations in tone and texture, achieved through the aquatint technique, give depth and dimension to the otherwise simple composition. A handwritten inscription along the left side adds a personal touch, reminding the viewer of the blend between the handcrafted and mass-produced elements in Sultan’s work. This piece reflects Sultan's exploration of everyday objects, transforming them into fine art through traditional printing techniques.

What is Hard Edge Art?
Artwork by Ellsworth Kelly

What is Hard Edge Art?

Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
