Richard Diebenkorn ( 1922 – 1993 ) was an American painter who’s early work is associated with Abstract Expressionism and The Bay Area Figurative Movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s. His later works were instrumental to his achievement of worldwide acclaim. His artworks were influenced by other important Modern artists including Clyfford Still, Willem De Kooning, Arshile Gorky, and Henri Matisse. Described as one of the premier American painters of The Postwar Era, Diebenkorn’s deeply lyrical Abstractions evoked the shimmering light and wide open spaces of California, where he spent virtually his entire life. His artworks are included in the collections of many of the most prestigious museums.

Diebenkorn began his ” Ocean Park ” series in 1967, soon after moving from San Francisco to Southern California, where his friend and fellow painter Sam Francis invited him to take over his studio in the Ocean Park Neighborhood of Santa Monica. Here he began creating his best know body of work, The Ocean Park Series. The paintings in this series are not strict depictions of the Ocean Park landscape. Instead they represent his exploration of the interplay of light, color, and architecture around him. The seminal Ocean Park group of works is arguably the most celebrated of his illustrious career.
