// Phenomena Wing Cut by Paul Jenkins is an oil painting on canvas that captures Jenkins' signature approach to fluid and expressive color. Painted in 1979, this work reflects his fascination with organic forms and dynamic movement. The composition features a large, abstract shape reminiscent of a wing or manta ray, rendered in deep blues and subtle hints of purple and brown. The smooth, sweeping lines and gradations of color suggest a sense of motion, as if the form is gliding gracefully across the canvas. Jenkins' technique, which often involves pouring and manipulating paint, gives the surface a mesmerizing texture, inviting the viewer to explore the interplay between light, color, and form.

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.
