Abstract Paintings - The World Of Real Abstract Painting Is Here

Many people think that abstract paintings must have a specific meaning of some sort, which could be clearly understood and articulated if only they knew how.

Florida, FL (prHWY.com) October 10, 2012 - Florida, Oct 10, 2012 - Many people think that abstract paintings must have a specific meaning of some sort, which could be clearly understood and articulated if only they knew how. This misconception is not helped by the endless supply of people prepared to spout nonsense about what they think the artist was trying to say. The almost inevitable consequence of this situation is that people can either feel as though they are being excluded from sharing in some secret knowledge, or alternatively conclude that abstract painting is in fact all a sham.

Abstract Paintings - If I had a specific message or a meaning that I could articulate in words, then I would articulate it in words - the painting would have no purpose. The whole point of creating an abstract painting is that it embodies something that only it can, in a way that cannot be put into words. It is not an essay it is a painting - it encompasses and expresses things in a language that is unique to the medium of paint.

I can create a painting - I simply begin. The fact that I am me and no-one else is what makes my work different to anyone else's, and the same is true of all artists. The colours I choose, the marks a make, the accidents I choose to leave, or to obliterate, these are all things that I choose because of who I am.

The impressionists began portraying the natural world but did not paint it strictly as it appeared. They took liberties with form, using color to describe the subject. I encourage you to look at a Cezanne painting of fruit. Even though you recognize the fruit, it is not painted exactly as it looks in real life.

Landscape Paintings - True abstract paintings have designs, shapes and colors that do not look like specific physical objects. That makes them harder to understand than representational paintings. You usually have no idea what it is you are seeing. Let's see if we can make some sense out of this.

Abstract paintings are more than what meets the eye and to see why, we need to consider the basic purpose of art. To truly appreciate a work of art, you need to see it as more than just a single, isolated creation; there must be a context. Art is not timeless. Every painting is created within a particular environment. You need to understand the environment to appreciate the art. It makes sense to learn something about the life and culture that the artist lived in.
