Peer Review
Hi Sarah! Your outline looks really good so far. You may have already been thinking about these, but I just wanted to add a few things that might be important to include/elaborate on:

– Childhood influence, specifically growing up in a coal mining town, and how that impacted his style

– His view of gestural painting as a means to create physical form and presence

– Influence on the Minimalist sculptors Sjs1994 (talk) 05:30, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

General suggestions for improvement
Nicely-written article. Fluidly written and well-cited. Still a few suggestions:
 * some missing citations
 * would love to see a slightly more in-depth discussion of 1-2 well-known or particularly influential works; this *would give the article depth
 * needs copy editing and cleanup, especially for economy of language and diction (for example, "This exploration back to color-use was still in development when Kline died in 1962"). Aolivex (talk) 18:25, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
