For Alma Woodsey Thomas

This Ana Inciardi mini print pays tribute to Alma Woodsey Thomas, the pioneering American abstract painter known for her vibrant, color-field compositions. The print features vertical stripes of varying widths running nearly the full height of the image, rendered in warm oranges, rusty reds, olive greens, dusty pinks, soft yellows, and pale blues, all set against a deep navy background. The edges of each stripe are slightly irregular and textured, giving the lines an organic, handmade quality rather than a mechanical precision. White accents trace along many of the stripe edges, adding a subtle luminosity throughout. Alma Thomas was the first African American woman to have a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, in 1972. Her signature style relied on rhythmic bands and dabs of color, often inspired by nature and light. Collectors are drawn to this print because it functions as both an homage and a visual conversation, Inciardi's own stripe-based composition echoing Thomas's celebrated approach to color and rhythm. The choice of subject places this firmly as part of her broader print series honoring artists and cultural figures, and it pairs naturally with other tribute prints in her catalog. For collectors building a thematic grouping around art history or color-forward subjects, this print carries particular resonance. The combination of the deep navy ground and the warm spectrum of stripes gives the composition an energy that feels considered rather than decorative, making it a meaningful addition to any focused Inciardi collection.
