Art Style: Abstract

At a glance, an abstract painting might not look like much. But tap into your imagination, you might also see two people facing the ocean.

This art genre allows you to find your own interpretations, emotions and feelings and in a certain way is a silent conversation and experience between yourself and the artist.

Abstract paintings show you what artists see underneath the surface. And fluid shapes, lines, texture and colour appeal to your emotions, values, and innermost experiences.

Although there is no single definition to this art genre, it is based on the concept of abstraction which means “freedom from representational qualities in art”. It is a form of nonrepresentational art and therefore is not bound to a single movement, style or genre in the visual arts.
