Roy Lichtenstein’s, Brushstroke, 1965, turns the spontaneous gesture of a painted mark into a bold and highly controlled Pop Art image. With strong outlines, vibrant color, and crisp graphic precision, Lichtenstein transforms the expressive sweep of a brushstroke into a stylized, iconic form. The composition highlights his interest in examining the act of painting itself, reducing a fleeting gesture to a clean and deliberate visual statement. Dynamic, polished, and instantly recognizable, Brushstroke stands as one of his most celebrated explorations of artistic process through contemporary design.
