At first glance, Abstract Painting could appear to be a monochromatic black canvas, but a cautious look reveals that this painting is a three-by-three grid with squares in varying shades of black.

Piet Mondrian was evolving his summary language, of horizontal and vertical lines with rectangles of coloration, between 1915 and 1919, Neo-Plasticism was the aesthetic which Mondrian, Theo van Doesburg and different within the group De Stijl meant to reshape the atmosphere of the long run.

Alongside music, abstract art is among the purest types of expression, as it permits artists the liberty to speak feelings and feelings unconstrained by forms found in objective reality. Summary art, non-figurative artwork, non-objective art, and nonrepresentational artwork are loosely associated terms.

As a primary rule of thumb, variation and contrast are what will help make the painting interesting, particularly when you’re a bit of a noob and not feeling too assured about you’re doing! An objective interest in what is seen, might be discerned from the paintings of John Constable , J M W Turner , Camille Corot and from them to the Impressionists who continued the plein air portray of the Barbizon college.

The poetic, Lyrical Abstraction and the sensuous use of coloration seen in the work of painters as diverse as Robert Motherwell , Patrick Heron , Kenneth Noland , Sam Francis , Cy Twombly , Richard Diebenkorn , Helen Frankenthaler , Joan Mitchell , amongst others.
