Abstract art is about
creating work that encompases all elements of good art such as
form, composition, color, structure and balance. The main difference
between representational art and abstract art is that abstract
art does not attempt to recreate recognizable objects or places.
Instead, the abstract artist invents art that is unknown and
comes from within the artist's imagination. This may be expressed
by the use of color, shape, and composition. The source or inspiration
may come from landscape or specific objects. Or, it may be from
an interest in different materials and structures. The subject
or content of abstract art may be about creating an atmosphere
or building a structure using geometric or organic shapes. It
may be about exploring color or about expressing subconscious
feelings. Abstract art is also referred to as non-objective art.
