Adventures into abstract painting

Some days ago I took a class from Denise Love about abstract painting and color blocking. I decided to go for the colors she used in her class and mixed similar colors with my acrylic paints (although I somehow forgot to mix the yellow ochre, oops). Then I just went for it and played around with large brushes, my palette knife and a scraper. And I have to admit, that I really like the result.

Explorations into abstract art

Lately, I’ve been drawn to abstract painting more and more. It’s a unique form of art that allows me to express my creativity without being bound by traditional techniques or rules. On the other hand it’s also a challenge if you get stuck in your head. What helps me to prevent going in my head is to just play and experiment without an intention of making „good“ looking art.

A cosmic symphony

This one has been laying around for way too long. I had the idea somewhere in summer but only in September I started playing on a canvas that had two lyric pages glued on. And somehow suddenly everything clicked when I let go and just played a bit around. Now I finally managed to cut some of the videos and here is the part where I created the background.
