aquiver, glob, stipple, smear, ravished


Howard Hodgkin, a British artist whose lush, semiabstract paintings, aquiver with implicit drama, established him as one of the most admired artists of the postwar period, died on Thursday in London. He was 84.

他的繪畫色彩鬱鬱蔥蔥,似抽象、似表意,似含蓄令人顫動的戲劇



His globs and stipples and smears — seemingly brisk and impulsive, but painstakingly applied and endlessly revised — ravished.


他的顏料呈半液體狀、讓畫面有許多小點或斑點、或塗層或記物,或隨意地揮灑油性或粘性物--看似輕快而任意,實則用心經營,又一再修改--真令人著迷。



aquiver
əˈkwɪvə/

  1. quivering; trembling.

    "her face was aquiver with pleasure"
