Mixed Georgian &#38; Early Victorian English Silver Tea &#38; Coffee Service (6 Pieces) 

Abstract mixed media drawing on paper, signed and dated “Ronald ’78” in the lower margin. The composition features gestural abstraction with energetic, free-flowing lines and areas of color in yellow, green, blue, and red/orange tones.

The expressive mark-making, dynamic movement, and use of color are consistent with the gestural abstraction associated with William Ronald (1926–1998), a prominent Canadian modernist and member of Painters Eleven. Ronald’s work was influenced by Abstract Expressionism and artists such as Willem de Kooning, and frequently explored spontaneity, rhythm, and layered color through works on paper and canvas.

This artwork is therefore offered as attributed to William Ronald, based on signature and the information on the back, along with the date, and stylistic characteristics. 
Presented in a modern frame with matting.

Medium: Mixed media on paper (appears to include pastel/crayon and watercolor)
Signature: Signed and dated “Ronald ’78”
Condition: Artwork appears in good condition; light age-appropriate wear to frame and mat. Please review photos.
