Number 7

"Number 7" by Bradley Walker Tomlin, created in 1953, exemplifies his mastery within the Abstract expressionism movement. Tomlin, an influential figure in mid-20th-century American art, employed dynamic brushwork and gestural techniques to evoke emotion and spontaneity. As an Abstract artist, his work emphasizes non-representational forms and innovative use of color and texture. The title "Number 7" suggests a focus on form and sequence rather than subject matter, aligning with the genre's emphasis on the act of painting itself. This piece captures the vibrancy and immediacy characteristic of his abstract approach.
