An artist may paint a dog by rearranging its face and body parts (just like Pablo Picasso did with his famous painting of a woman's face) to make it seem more approachable and trustworthy.
This is called abstract art.
An artist can change the reality with a painting and make the viewer appreciate the cleverness of the idea.
To create a successful piece of abstract art, the artist must make the object or objects so different that it moves the viewer.
The latter must like and feel affected by this abstract art.
For example, a blade of grass may look very different after painting it like a sharp knife.
Remember that what matters most are the viewer's feelings towards the painting.
A piece of this art may do nothing for you but as long as it can affect the majority of people's emotions, it has succeeded.
The key is to understand that abstract art is based around feelings.
Here are 6 steps to help you create your first abstract art painting.
Creating Abstract Art - 6 Steps 1.
Choose a feeling that you want to focus on for your painting.
This could be your current feeling or another person's mood who you are affected by.
2.
After you have decided on the feeling, look for an object that you think relates to the emotion you want to paint.
You may need 2 - 3 items before finally deciding on the object you want to paint.
3.
With the chosen object in front of you, imagine how you are going to portray it in your painting to amplify the feeling you want to share.
For example, if you have chosen a plant to display the feeling of loneliness, think about what you can add or take away from the object to magnify the loneliness feeling.
For example, you make consider adding droplets of water to the leaves to represent tears.
4.
Next, think of the background for your object(s) that will further showcase the feeling of being lonely.
You could paint a cold, dark night, an empty hall or an abandoned backyard.
The background is just as important as the object although the latter is the one that everyone focuses on.
One cannot exist without the other.
5.
Now that you have confirmed the object and the background, get into the mood that you are trying to paint.
If you are happy, then being feeling sad will not help your painting much.
Your current mood affects your final painting.
6.
As you are painting, new ideas will develop which you can consider to add to your painting.
Take your time with the painting and write down the ideas if you think they are feasible.
At the end of the day, look through the list of ideas that you have written down and see if they can be added to your painting.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Abstract art is about portraying a feeling of a simple object and making it extraordinary.
The best way to study abstract art is to look through examples on the Internet and try to understand what the artist is trying to communicate.
