Original Gouache on Paper | Framed | c. Mid-20th Century
A delicate balance of soft earth tones and intuitive line work defines this original gouache on paper by mid-century American artist John Paul Parent. Rendered with translucent layers of warm ochre, muted coral, and atmospheric blue, this abstract composition captures Parent’s signature sensitivity to form and space. The work invites quiet contemplation, evoking movement and emotion through its understated, lyrical brushstrokes.
Professionally matted and housed in a vintage silver-gilt frame, this piece reflects both timelessness and mid-century modern sophistication. A subtle, contemplative addition to a curated wall, it pairs beautifully with both minimalist and eclectic interiors.
About the Artist:
John Paul Parent (1927–2001) was an American abstract painter associated with the New York School and mid-century modernism. A student of Hans Hofmann and a contemporary of notable postwar abstractionists, Parent developed a unique visual language rooted in color, rhythm, and spatial tension. His work has been exhibited in galleries throughout the U.S., and is held in private collections across the country.
Pricing reflects the rarity of original mid-century gouache works by Parent, as well as the quality of framing and condition.
