Painting and Understanding Abstract Art is a practical book on how
to paint abstracts but it also explains how to approach and
understand abstract art. It moves the teaching of art from a doing
level of painting a certain subject in a particular medium to a
thinking level of 'what am I doing when I paint?' and 'what am I
trying to say in this painting?' Using practical exercises with
explanatory text, John Lowry develops the thinking and doing
processes together and leads the reader to a greater understanding
and appreciation of this most exciting art genre. Advice on moving
from figurative painting towards abstraction Tools to abstraction
explained - simplifying and exaggerating; eliminating curves and
straights; changing colours, lines and items ; emphasising positive
and negative shapes; and using contrast Practical exercises to help
develop your own style and understand the techniques of the masters
Overview of the lives and times of artists involved in the
stage-by-stage evolution from realism to abstraction
