I Love To Paint

This was a project done in Abstract art class with words painted in warm colors on top of cool.
This was all done with acrylic paint on an
eight by ten inch art board.

Abstract Landscape

This was for my first abstract art class assignment, which was to make an abstract landscape. I used an 8" X 10" canvas board. I used a paint knife to half mix yellow ochre and burnt umber acrylic paint for the ground and ultra-marine & cobalt blue for the sky, then green, black and iridescent violet for the tree and flower

Warhol Goop

For Abstract Art class, last Tuesday, we were shown how other people had made their own versions of classic art pieces. How works had been made based on previous works and turned into styles like Cubist, Surrealist, Abstract Expressionist, or simply their own interpretation. I've certainly done enough of that. Look through this blog and you'll see my versions of works based on Piet Mondrian, Mark Rothko, Alex Calder and others. Also, how many versions of classic works like the Statue of Liberty and Mona Lisa have we seen. Did you ever see the fat Mona Lisa?
But, I have never done a stab at Warhol before, so I give you a can of Warhol Vegtable Goop, done with acrylic paint on 8" X 10" canvas board.
