A Deeper Look At Abstract Watercolor Painting

By Eliza Mendoza


Abstract watercolor painting is whereby abstract art and watercolor are paired. In art, abstraction is usually not designed to represent the external realities of the world but it however strives to create a visual language of its own by using colors, textures, shapes and forms. Generally, it can be described as a form of painting that designs images which are transparent and luminous due to the fact that the pigments used contain very little fillers which obscure their colors.

Basically, artists who are concerned particularly with this kind of art have an attitude that does not conform in terms of art. The main challenge they pose is giving form to personal interpretations of figures which do not have a particular form. This results to one having to think hard about the situation and what it would really mean for him or her.

There are several materials required to begin the process and they are indeed readily available at fair prices. These will include a pencil, certain special paints, paintbrushes and papers that can be written on with the paints. If you are to undertake this task, you will also have to allocate a lot of time to it because it requires that you think deeply through the entire process.

Generally, anything is acceptable with this type of art. This applies for all types of arts as well but it is always advisable that you get as much information as you can about the art rather than just performing it. Shape, form, color and texture are among the visual elements of this activity. With abstraction comes removal of reality from the images found on the piece of art. The removal may be slight, partial or complete depending on what the artist wants.

A lot may be done concerning artwork using this technique of abstraction. Naturally, it is regarded as vague and it is the viewer who interprets the whole image for himself and decides what to think of it. People often find this fun and this is the reason artists involved in this practice love their job so much. You can visit any art store and get sketchbook papers and pencils and try it yourself to see how good your creativity could be.

Anything you sketch on the paper appears on the paper like a normal drawing. The moment your paintbrush comes into contact with the paper, the paint penetrates and causes an illusion. The aim of the artist is to now make that illusion to look three dimensional. This effect is what every artist tries to achieve so as to please those viewing his art work.

This effect is what makes the drawing appear real but in order to do this, a lot of practice is required. One could improve their skills by attending classes. These classes will include learning from the internet or physically attending a class to learn one on one. This could be in places such as art stores. Some artists also record their teaching lessons on DVDs and sell them.

Abstract watercolor painting can be used to relieve stress from the mind. Some thought and feelings may pile up in the mind and they could lead to stress especially if they are not let out. An individual can let such feelings out by just drawing what he feels as this will act as a form of letting the feelings out.
