Abstract Portrait by Mina Pulsifer, Oil on Masonite P3458
Beautiful 1965 abstract figurative painting by Mina Pulsifer, showcasing her signature mid-century modern style. The figure is subtly suggested through overlapping translucent shapes, allowing the form to emerge softly from a mosaic of blues, greens, yellows, and rose tones. Pulsifer’s layered brushwork and harmonious palette create a dreamlike, atmospheric quality, giving the piece both depth and movement.
This work reflects Pulsifer’s exploration of abstraction in the 1960s, where she blended human forms with expressive color fields and geometric structures. The composition feels contemplative and fluid, inviting the viewer into an intimate, almost meditative space. Housed in a simple vintage wood frame that complements the artwork without distraction.
A strong and serene example of Mina Pulsifer’s mid-century output—ideal for collectors of California modernist, abstract, or figurative art.
