Fun exercise for abstract painting

Outcome                                                                                      

I made all these paintings and compositions through a simple and fun process:                           

• Took a sheet of paper marked six sections with pencil, taped it. 
• Used same mediums same colors on each section but differently, had fun.
• Removed tape, cut sections and done.

   What I have learnt from this exercise is:       

• Got more sense of composition.
• Explored different ways of using colors and mediums since I had to use same in each section.
• Better control of values in a painting.
• Better understanding of my choices and results. 😊

Material used:

Acrylic paints, highlighter, pencil, oil crayon, soft pastel, hand painted paper collage.

Over all an excellent exercise to practice more often. I plan to try it on a larger scale and see if I can get a good painting/paintings out of it. Enjoyed!

I learnt this here from Adele Sypesteyn.
