About Leprechaun Helen Frankenthaler Abstract Expressionism Painting
Frankenthaler explored her changing role in the masterful Leprechaun. In this painting, hard lines of dark green dissipate into a fog of white tones, which in turn modulate as they move farther towards the edges of the canvas. These wispy tones retain hints of the dark green core as they move to the left and checked definitively by brighter, more joyful shades of green as they move to the right. These subtle, layered movements along the bottom half of the painting are reflected overhead. Marks of red paint move in a parabola from the upper-left- of the painting to the upper-right. They appear as though they had been thrown from something outside the frame or as though they had jumped themselves. These marks of red paint meet joyful yellow-orange swashes in the upper-right. The red and the orange interlock at several moments, with the former infiltrating the latter, but the bright tones generally overpower the darker ones with their verve. Leprechaun exudes a sense of lightness and vitality. The composition is dynamic as movements happen simultaneously and in multiple directions.
