Henry G. Keller

Bird Rock, California
1925

This is an abstract watercolor painting featuring dynamic, swirling forms that suggest a group of figures or creatures, with a central figure that appears to be reaching upward. The color palette is muted with shades of black, gray, and touches of blue and yellow. The brushwork is loose and expressive, creating a sense of movement and energy. There is a signature in the bottom right corner. The artwork is displayed on a vertical sheet of paper with a slight texture.
