Carl Morris was an American abstract painter active from the 1940s onward, working primarily in oil and acrylic to develop a gestural, color-saturated vocabulary rooted in postwar abstraction. His compositions balance spontaneity with structured formal arrangement, employing bold brushwork and layered pigment to create spatial depth across the canvas.
