This Friday's art appreciation moment is: Push/Pull Still Life by Provincetown artist Laura Shabott, which of course pays great homage to Hans Hofmann. When Laura mentioned she had a work at Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM), I thought she meant in the current members juried show, but nooooo.....her work is in the PAAM permanent collection!!! #art #artist #abstractart #hanshofmann #provincetown #artmuseum #fridayartappreciation

The artworks of abstract expressionist Hans Hofmann (1880-1966) has been most influential on me. Probably more so than any other artist. His use of geometric shapes and color are unlike anything I’ve seen. This painting, “Composition No.43” is a go to for me when I’m needing motivation. What do you think of Hans Hofmann and his works of art?

#HelenFrankenthaler, #HansHofmann, #RobertMotherwell, #JoanMitchell, and others paved the way for my artwork. They were masters and influencers. This painting from #WillemdeKooning is an all time favorite. What do you think?
