Known for an all-over saturation of painted surface, Tim Deverell (b. 1939), a member of the Arts Student League NYC, started exhibiting in New York the 1960s. His abstract style developed through landscape and figuration towards an urban iconography. Forms vary between a non-specific array of geometries to recognizable elements suggesting populated cityscapes or crowds. Particularly drawn to this convergence of abstraction and the figure, Penny Rose collected this large, stunning canvas, which hung in the entrance way to her and Poldaas’ home. Deverell gifted Rose with a small study of the work to accompany the large-scale canvas.
