Description

George Morrison produced this drawing at the time he was making his large wood collages. This piece has a collage feel where each element is contained but connected. Morrison used thin lines to form the wavy and straight-edged shapes depicted in the drawing. He also included a horizontal demarcation a quarter of the way down from the top, a feature that is prevalent throughout his body of work.

Description

In this watercolor by George Morrison, the artist painted a network of black vertical and horizontal lines against alternating strips of blue, green, and orange color. Producing what he called “little Cubistic sections” of varying rectangular and rounded shapes, Morrison created a dynamic between positive and negative space by juxtaposing colored and non-colored sections.

Description
describe the object
This drawing by George Morrison depicts a cluster of organic shapes arranged horizontally in front of a segmented pink, black, and blue background. The random fluctuation of the circular forms' size and shape, as well as the chaotic web of thin lines that weave throughout the painting, are a product of Morrison's propensity towards "automatism."
