Ellsworth Kelly (May 31, 1923 – present day) is an American painter, sculptor, and printmaker associated with hard-edge painting.  His work demonstrates unassuming techniques emphasizing simplicity of for, he often uses bright colors. One variant he uses is the hard-edge painting of Post-Painterly Abstraction. He used delineated areas of color to distill painting with razor-sharp edges, living it with its essential two dimensional elements.  This painting gives no illusion of depth and the shapes are 2 dimensional, keeping this painting simple but stunning.

"The form of my painting is the content."
- Ellsworth Kelly

This is the painting that made me choose the category of my exhibition. This is one of my absolute favorites.
