How could you create the same effect ?
Hard-edge painting became a popular style in the 1950s and 1960s. It describes an abstract style that combines the clear composition of geometric abstraction with the intense color and bold, unified forms.
Remember the Art Style for its fullness of color, clean lines, linear (line-based) pattern and smooth surface planes.

John McLaughlin, 1898 –1976
John McLaughlin was born in Sharon, Massachusetts. His father was a
Massachusetts Superior Court judge and he had six siblings. His parents instilled in him an
interest in art, most specifically Asian art.
McLaughlin's work is characterized by a simplicity expressed as precise
geometric forms, usually rectangles.
Based on his study of Asian Art, he learned that sometimes a VOID (or nothingness) is just as important as a wildly, exciting, colorful painting…
