Wayne Thiebaud is widely admired as a painter. Yet his ability as a draftsman is equally compelling and particularly evident in lithography, an autographic medium celebrated for documenting an artist's every gesture. As Paint Cans fully demonstrates, lithography also provides the freedom to layer texturally and with colors to achieve a canny representation of an artist's articulated intentions. In composition, "Paint Cans" displays Thiebaud's keen sense of order, deriving from an emphasis on focal points and directional lines that demonstrate the unique ways he can highlight a grouping of everyday items. It is yet another work that amazes the viewer with his highly detailed technique and skills. Wayne Thiebaud is widely admired as a painter.
