Willem de Kooning (1904 - 1997) - Abstract Expressionist - Action Painter


When I first discovered the paintings done by Willem de Kooning, I immediately felt that sense of familiarity again...  His swift brush strokes, expressive use of bold and muted colours and the composition of seemingly unfamiliar objects - like, like and like!  These are just some of my personal favourite paintings of his. Even though his painting style may appear swift (also dubbed "action painting"), a busy man he was indeed, since there are many many more paintings done by him.
