New Mexico artist William Lumpkins studied and painted with Peter Hurd in his early years, but it was seeing an exhibition of John Marin’s watercolors in Taos that pushed him towards abstraction. His time with the Transcendental Painting Group and Raymond Jonson helped shape his style, and an abiding interest in Buddhism made him an early advocate of sustainable living and solar architecture. You can see hints of Marin’s influence in High Desert Series, Azul as Lumpkins finds and brings out the abstraction in the landscape, presenting it in essential, kinetic forms.
