James W. Boynton

Aftermath
1956–1957

A dark, almost monochromatic painting with textured layers at the bottom, creating a sense of depth. The upper portion is a flat, deep black field, while the lower section features raised, horizontal striations and a subtle, embossed geometric pattern. The overall effect is somber and minimalist.
