This Dominic Pangborn work, titled "Whimsical Lines," is an exquisite ink on paper drawing, inspired by the legendary Pablo Picasso. Hand signed in the bottom right-hand corner. Characterized by its elegant lines and abstract figures, the piece reflects a clear influence of Picasso's distinctive style, particularly his line drawings and cubist period, where the simplification of characters into geometric forms was prominent. Whimsical Lines is presented in a light-toned frame, which complements the monochromatic ink and adds a refined touch. From the personal collection of Dominic Pangborn. Dimensions: 40"h x 31"w x 1"d (framed). In very good condition. World renowned artist Dominic Pangborn has been a celebrated Detroit artist for decades.
