Judy Woods stARTs Course Taster

 Hello All!

A couple of weeks ago I took artist Judy Woods' stARTs course taster. We created 3 large (40x40cm) abstract pieces. It was interesting to work on 3 art pieces at the same time, starting with Judy's process, then finishing the paintings in our own individual style.

We started by creating light and dark, and texture on our paintings.


Then we added some painted focal images, marks, drips and colour with collage and acrylic inks.




The next stage we used dark paint and oil pastels to create more interest.




And finally, we finished the paintings, deciding what we liked, adjusting with more collage, paint, pastels, ink etc., to hopefully create a balanced abstract piece of art.

Here are my finished pieces.




Do you have a favourite? Mine is the pink, orange and yellow one with rectangles.

Thanks for dropping by, hope you have a great new week.

  6. I'm a huge fan of abstract art, especially when it is done right. I absolutely adore them all, but you are right, the one with pink, orange, and yellow is my favorite, too. I love how you took us from start to finish, too.
