A Few Abstract Paintings - feel free to use in your posts if you like them

thecryptofiend (74)in #art • 7 years ago

Introduction

I love abstract art. Whether it is the more textural works of Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock or the geometric designs of Piet Mondrian - there is something particularly aesthetically pleasing to me about these kinds of images.

I have recently been inspired to create a few of my own pieces of abstract work. These were created with Corel Painter 2016 which is a lot cheaper than using old fashioned canvas and paints. This also allows for more experimentation as one does not have to worry about costs and wasting materials.

I don't yet have names for these - perhaps you can suggest some. For now I will just number them. Please let me know what you think.

I also have some alternate colour versions of these - if people like these I can post the alternate versions too - just let me know in the comments.

Feel free to use these in your own posts as per Steemit4free.

1 - I was thinking of calling this and the next piece corpuscle 1 and 2.

2 - I used some of the textures from 1 to create this piece.

3 - don't really have much to say about this. I used chalk and crayon brushes to create it (the other pieces were done with airbrushes).

4 - both this and 5 started of with the same first layer of brush strokes but gradually evolved into completely different images. This has a more organic, leafy feel.

5 - for this one I wanted a more plasma like appearance.

Wicked cool man! Number 3 is my favorite. I used to do a lot of abstract painting myself, been thinking of taking pictures and posting some, I think you just inspired me :D

You should definitely do it! Also if you want to try doing things digitally I would recommend Corel Painter - the brushes are a lot more realistic than Photoshop and although it isn't cheap (about £250) - it is much cheaper than real art materials.
