This abstract oil painting by late Houston artist Dick Wray expresses a striking kinetic energy. Thick layers of paint foster a remarkable tactility commonly found in Dick Wray’s artwork. The treatment of the oil reflects a tendency toward impulse and vigorous expression. The surface of the painting is rich with texture - thick layers of impasto paint which wax gesturally across the canvas.

This intimate Dick Wray painting is encased in a satin-black wood frame. The frame depth measures approximately 2 inches, and the face measures 2 inches with a quarter inch relief from the edge of the painting.
