How To Create Landscape Abstract Paintings

By Brenda Davis


The most important lesson an emerging artist or painter can learn is that while you can use a model, it is not necessary to paint exactly what one sees. For example, when it comes to Landscape Abstract Paintings, there are many variables one can use to make the art more creative. In some cases, this may be using animated features. In others, it can be to paint in a way which leaves a great deal of interpretation to the viewer.

The content for abstract painters often comes from a model whether a landscape, individual or object. In creating this style of artwork, most prefer to use a combination oil, color mixing and acrylic. While abstract most often refers to paintings, there are a number of mixed-media and 3-D artists whom also use the term.

Modern artists often find inspiration in different areas. Some of these include, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, prose, real life, landscapes and objects. In most cases, the outcome is often a piece leaving viewers to question the meaning behind the inspiration. For, there is often nothing an art lover loves more than to contemplate and interpret the meaning behind a piece of abstract art.

Individuals can often find art classes in a number of different locations around the world. In addition, there are also a number of online classes offered, many which use YouTube videos as part of the coursework. One such class is offered by Brian Ryder. Whether a natural and able to pick up a paintbrush and begin painting or one whom needs more direction, these classes can often be beneficial.

In Beyond Realism, the best known class offered by Mr. Ryder, students learn about attitudes, moods, methods, composition and color. During the class, teacher and students work side-by-side on a project. After which, many students go on to become well known artists, some whom later show paintings and other pieces in modern art museums and galleries.

The teacher also provides methods for students to learn how to use layers when it comes to creating the abstract shapes. After which, students are taught how to use complementary colors which will allow the shapes to become more visible. In addition, there are a number of training videos now available on YouTube and other video sites. When desiring to delve even deeper, those interested can also find a number of art classes online, including offerings from a number of universities on the Coursera and edX websites.

The Artists Network website provides a great deal of information on these classes as well as a full length video, reviews and materials list for creating paintings in this genre. In addition, there are also definitions and examples of various styles. For example, wet-into-wet and wet-on dry. Individuals can also learn how to choose the most workable landscapes and models.

While classes can often be beneficial, most artists learn how to create bold shapes, sizes and colors over time. As such, while the painting of poppies often used in class may pop with color, it can also be good to use other shapes and sizes in the process. For, the more creative an artist can be whether with regards to a landscape, individual or object, the more attention the piece generally receives from buyers, galleries and museums.
