Beschreibung
Painting and Understanding Abstract Art is a practical book on how to paint abstracts but it also explains how to approach and understand abstract art. It moves the teaching of art from a doing level of painting a certain subject in a particular medium to a thinking level of ''what am I doing when I paint. '' and ''what am I trying to say in this painting. '' Using practical exercises with explanatory text, John Lowry develops the thinking and doing processes together and leads the reader to a greater understanding and appreciation of this most exciting art genre. Advice on moving from figurative painting towards abstractionTools to abstraction explained - simplifying and exaggerating; eliminating curves and straights; changing colours, lines and items ; emphasising positive and negative shapes; and using contrastPractical exercises to help develop your own style and understand the techniques of the mastersOverview of the lives and times of artists involved in the stage-by-stage evolution from realism to abstraction
