In Lovely Blueness I, 1955-1957 by Sam Francis.

Francis moved to Paris in 1950 where he met Jean-Paul Riopelle who was to remain an important influence, and the study of Monet's Waterlilies had a profound impact on his work. From a very muted palette of greys and whites, he returned to the qualities of light and color producing such works as Big Red 1953. He continues to develop the use of white space and increased the dimensions of his paintings for greater emphasis. During his period in Europe, he executed a number of monumental mural paintings. He was greatly influenced by Abstract Expressionism particularly the works of Clyfford Still and Jackson Pollock. In his use of space on the canvas to allow free circulation of strong color and sensitivity to light Francis developed his own style by the time his studies had ended.
