Signed and numbered by the artist. // Five Invocations III is a mesmerizing lithograph by Paul Jenkins from 1997, featuring an expansive field of luminous red that cascades across the composition in flowing, organic washes. The work exemplifies Jenkins’s signature technique of pouring and guiding pigment to create veils of translucent color that seem to pulse with inner light. Varying intensities of crimson, scarlet, and deep burgundy merge and separate in a continuous dialogue of transparency and opacity, evoking the chromatic mysteries that defined Jenkins’s contribution to Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting. The subtle interplay of saturated and diluted areas creates a breathing, atmospheric surface of remarkable depth.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
