“Art is exploration, a subjective discovery.” - Thomas W. Benton

Benton created a number of limited edition fine art prints in the 1960s and 1970s using abstract forms and organic themes. He drew upon his career as an architect, the strong influence of Eastern art, and artists such as Mark Rothko and Katsushika Hokusai. Benton incorporated Eastern symbols including calligraphy, sunsets and spirals. A solitary dove also became an integral element in Benton’s art, symbolizing peace and the spirit of man.
