Monoprint and aquatint in colors, on Rives BFK paper // Sam Francis's Untitled (SFE-072) (1989) is a vibrant monoprint and aquatint on Rives BFK paper that exemplifies his abstract expressionist style. The artwork features an array of splattered and dripped colors—blues, reds, yellows, and greens—intertwined with bold black forms, creating a dynamic and energetic composition. The use of color and gestural strokes suggests a sense of movement, giving the piece an explosive and lively feel. The central dark shape, surrounded by bright splashes and drips, anchors the composition, while the contrasting colors and textures highlight the artist's command over spontaneity and controlled chaos.

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.
