If you’re wanting to move into creating Abstract Art there is lots of advice out there. I’ve discovered that asking Google HOW TO CREATE ABSTRACT ART resulted in bad advice. In this video I go through why Google has it wrong and what my BEST 6 TIPS are.

I think it's also a good idea to read about the basics of colour theory and get or make a colour wheel. Otherwise a lot of experimentation with colour can be quite discouraging and wasteful of paint because there are so many mistakes to be made. I also wondered if "Start with black and white" was meant to suggest that you map out the painting by value- i.e. black, white, and greys, before adding colour. I could see the point of that. It was such an odd suggestion.
Thanks Judy. As an older person, who loves to paint, with no formal training, I am lost. Your tips will be so helpful.

Found this very useful. I'm coming into my second year of exploring my art. For me it really is about what I like, what I feel. If I start to overthink it goes wrong. I breathe art. I had to take a step back and almost put on blinkers from everybody else's art, such as Facebook groups I was in. It was too overwhelming and too much pressure. Only now am I starting to look at other's work, both smaller artists and the masters and seeing what I like about it and seeing if there are any aspects that I can take and make my own.

Yes, focus is important. And asking WHY? Why do I resonate with this work?
Lol Google. "Go large" is terrible advice for beginners. Im surprised something crucial like learning the design elements wasnt on Google's list! My advice would be work on paper and allow yourself to make HEAPS of incomplete pieces, while you let yourself play and explore different mediums and tools. Also, dont even think about judging yourself in a negative way. Just focus on learning.
Totally agree with all you have said. Thanks!

I'm afraid I have to disagree with a lot of what you said here Judy, especially the idea of learning from the masters. Picasso deconstructed all the masters he admired and ended up creating some of the most creative art in history. I believe it's really important to understand why the masters created such great art and how they did it. Without any understanding of art theory you're just making meaningless marks

I don't mean you shouldn't learn from the masters - there is a lot to be gained by studying what they did. However to find YOUR style of art you have to look within - I believe.

I agree with Judy. Also meaningless marks cannot be so if they come from yourself. Meaningful doesn't mean what the classics do or what art theory teaches.

I just watched an interview with Ron Hicks. He was saying that a balance between skill and personal creativity was important. I believe that was your point Judy. I feel as though knowing the rules allows artists to break through them into their own identity as an artist and create unique and authentic works.
