Abstract Conversation Paintings

to create these pieces we started of looking into the work of Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, Cy Twombly, Clifford Still and Fiona Rae. 

They each show different ways to create abstract paintings, once we had got inspiration from these artist we were ready to create our own pieces.

To start we had to chose between either white or black paper and then get some red, yellow, blue and white acrylic paint.

For my first piece i had decided on white paper.

We were told that each mark should contradict/contrast with the previous one(s).

That the marks could overlap, attach or even insert into previous marks.

making sure to vary the stronger and lighter marks to the softer and sharper.

Here is that finished piece.
