Focus on this artwork and analyze the Process of creation.
Albers created the works under carefully controlled conditions to ensure uniformity across the series. He always painted the works on the rough side of Masonite panels. The panels were always covered with at least six coats of a white primer. Albers also controlled the lighting in the studio using fluorescent lights, which he arranged above his work table according to different patterns of light temperature. Albers used unmixed paint, directly from the tube. He applied it with his palette knife, generally beginning work on the central square and moving out toward the edge of the panel.
