Attempt at Abstraction
Categories: Potpourri
This is, as the name indicates, my first attempt at abstraction. I bought some flat brushes and I wanted to make big bold sections of color.
I started without any particular plan, but quickly found myself less and less happy with it as I went on. Overall, I’d say it’s a failure as a painting, but a success in that I am slowly learning more about controling my brushes, colors, and painting in general.
I’d call this one more of an exercise in control than a real attempt at abstraction. I think I will continue to try painting in this style, to see what comes out. I still have two more canvas panels.
What do you mean fail? This is awesome! I really like the part with the pink lima bean shape and the splash thing.
