Abstract Painting Is Truly Abstract Art In Abilene Firm
In Abilene the owners of a local architectural firm display an “abstract painting” that is not a painting at all but a board marked with splash marks, slashes, and dabs from a longtime sign painter. The 30 by 28 inch fragment has drawn offers up to 150 dollars, yet the piece remains unsold as the owners enjoy it and search for a suitable price. The board originally measured around 4 by 24 feet, with the rest discarded after framing.
