Mark Tobey

Inspired by mysticism and it’s bearing on art, Mark Tobey was an abstract painter whose works incorporated elements of Eastern Religion, international travels and Asian Calligraphy resulting in his own unique style that he dubbed ‘white writing’ - this technique involved using a base comprised of thousands of individual but interwoven brushstrokes, topped by a number of white calligraphic symbols and marks; such works as Broadway, Welcome Hero and Broadway norm showcase his white writing.
