Lately I have been very into abstract art by either creating it or researching other artists who also have created abstract art. I have been working on a painting that is able to portray how a color looks as well as make a statement that catches a persons eye. I chose my favorite color, teal, to paint the bold color with and then mixed it with white so there would be a subtle tint to fill in the rest of the white canvas.
I started out by using painters tape to create a diamond design. This gave the artwork geometrical shapes to them by using exact lines. The diamonds were painted the bold color while the lines surrounding them with the subtle color in order to give the painting a contrast. The final product gave a pattern that flowed through the whole painting.
