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.
