| Description: |
Features advice on moving from figurative painting towards abstraction; tools to abstraction explained - simplifying and exaggerating; and eliminating curves and straights; changing colours, lines and items; emphasising positive and negative shapes; and using contrast. |
| Synopsis: |
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. |
