Put to their fullest use, Morrison’s exceptional use of color, unhesitating lines and sense of unrestricted motion underscore his passion for the source of his inspiration, nature.
This painting is very vibrating. It diffuses a very tropical atmosphere with the green, blue, yellow and orange colors.
The signature is at the bottom to the right.
Literature
Color composition is Morrison’s strength. His works are composed of washes of color that cohere into organic wholes. Morrison’s approach allows the color to achieve a translucent on the paper. Layers of lavish colors are washed over one another, poured and applied with a variety of tools, including match sticks, squeegees and the artist’s hand, until the resulting textures and forms are integrated into pure movement, defying all definitions of time and space. Colors soak deep into his canvas, giving Morrison much of the pastel and translucent qualities which he seeks. The canvasses, themselves, are usually large, further conveying to the viewer the raw power and frenzy of nature.
