Francis, Sam, Signed Original Serigraph

Sam Francis, a prolific Californian artist was known for several works that echoed the famed Abstract Expressionist movement during the mid-20th century.  The momentum of his splashes of color, particularly in Lyre Eight, is intriguing and his color palette is whimsical and playful.  The composition of the color splotches are focused around the sheet edges, creating a type of inner frame and composition to the piece.
