Untitled is a 1961 oil by Graham Coughtry, a Abstract Expressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is mostly dark, with a single light-colored shape in the bottom right. It looks like a rough, uneven form—maybe a hill or a folded cloth—painted in dull browns and grays. The edges are messy, almost like the paint was scraped on. The artist used thick, uneven brushstrokes, making the surface look textured. It’s not polished or smooth—just raw and dark. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Graham Coughtry, was a Canadian modernist figurative painter.
