Create an Intuitive Abstract Landscape Painting with Lines
HTML-код

- In this painting demo video, I’ll share with you how I create an intuitive abstract landscape painting by employing lines to emphasize form and direction. I’ll explain the benefits of giving a 15-minute warm-up art exercise a second and in this case, a third try and how it can lead to leveling up your art skills.
As an artist, I’ve found that diving into a warm-up painting can stir the creativity needed to enhance our connection with intuitive abstract painting. Join me as I tackle a prompt from "50 Abstract Warm-Up Painting Prompts" (www.etsy.com/listing/16615441...) that’s both a challenge and a catalyst for growth. With phthalo blue, cadmium orange, mars black, and titanium white on my palette, or the closest hues you have at hand, we embark on a journey to construct an abstract landscape using lines that vary in thickness and trajectory, all converging into an intuitive art piece.

In the world of intuitive abstract painting, every brush stroke is a potential conversation, and as you'll see in this acrylic painting demo, I follow the direction the painting leads me in. The first try taught me lessons, the second brought me closer to where I wanted to be, and now, I’m excited to share the progress that these warm-up paintings have fostered. It’s in these repeated attempts that the true benefits of the exercise shine through. Each session builds muscle memory for brush handling, hones color mixing, and solidifies composition understanding.
But beyond technique, this painting exercise is about discovering a more spontaneous and efficient approach to abstract landscape painting. You'll see how each abstract warm-up painting allows for a fresh perspective, pushing creativity, and inviting innovation. And let's not forget the confidence that comes with practice-confidence that imbues every decision and brushstroke.
So, why not grab your brushes and follow along as I guide you through my process in this intuitive abstract painting adventure? By the end of this video, you'll not only witness the transformation of an abstract landscape painting but also grasp the benefits of a warm-up exercise done thrice. It’s a true testament to how repeating a challenge can truly level up your art skills. Let’s get those creative juices flowing and start painting!
And remember, keep on painting!

Thanks so much, Chris. Love the way you invite us into your process. Very grateful for the time and heart you put into sharing your work, knowledge, and self with us. 🙏
Thanks, Jordan! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Your appreciation really motivates me to keep sharing and creating.😊
I like to try and do at least 2 or 3 of the same warm up prompt, sometimes I have ideas while I'm going along that I want to start over trying, so that can be fun.
That's a great approach, Ann! I find doing multiple warm-ups can really spark new ideas and keep the creativity flowing.
Loved all of these, and the wavy lines really add interest. Made me think of a contour map as well. Thank you for the ideas and for the encouragement to jumpstart our creative flow.
Thanks, Luken! Glad this was helpful 😊
Particularly liked the vertical orientation. Many thanks for your suggestions and demos!.
Thanks so much, Margaret!❤️
I like it vertically. It remembers me to a plant...when is horizontally is very nice too but I miss a little bit something in the sky. For me is to empty...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ but I would like to see more of these paintings. I love these colorfield painting divided through black lines.
Thank you, Guiza! I had the same thought about the vertical looking like some kind of plant or tree trunk.❤️
It was really interesting seeing how you added the lines so freely. Not necessarily following along colour joins. Lines overlapping and in different directions.
Its not an approach I would have thought of.
Im going to try giving this a go when I get the chance. 😊
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said "freely". This is one of those 'coloring outside the lines" type of free flow intuitive ways of creating. Our minds naturally go to following the paths laid out by the paint and in some instances I did that, but I tried to let my hand lead me as much as possible. Let me know how it goes! 😊
Would like to see more of the intuitive landscape
Hey, Nilda! Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'll add more to my list.
So far- my favorite video of yours! Thank you!
Wow, thanks Marion!
I like the vertical orientations but see something different with each turn. Thanks for the video.
Hey Peggy! The vertical orientations are my favorite as well ❤️
So beautiful, I love your pieces of art! Thank you for sharing, from Quebec, Canada 🙂
Thank you so much, Chantal! Greetings from Colorado!
I’m so glad I found your channel! I really enjoyed watching your process. Lovely work!👏
Thanks so much, LM! I love hearing that😊
Ooh laa laa! That deserves to grow up! A really big painting it would look good in. I liked it in all orientations however, it did look quite special in the vertical. As always thank you for taking the time to make the videos. Cheers!
Thanks so much, Howling! We're on the same page. I've been thinking about going bigger with this one. I'm picking up some larger canvases today and might jump right into it after the gesso dries. Cheers!
@@chrisloudart That would be really good to see, do you think you'll do a video of it? Cheers!
I'm not sure I will record the larger painting, but I'll find a way to at least post the image on RUclips when it's done.
@@chrisloudart that'd be good to see a larger one, I hope you manage to find how to do that. I'm thinking of getting one of those glasses that have a camera on them it might be easier to video things, I'm just starting my research on them now to find out if they're any good or not, maybe it'd be something to think about for your videos. Cheers!
That would be quite helpful to use something like that! 😊
Thanks for sharing Chris, love the third one.
Thanks so much, Lorraine!
Wonderful piece Chris! 💙
Many thanks, Yolande!
Hi Chris, me again thanking you for another inspiring warm up. Something wonderful happened when you were marking the lines in the middle blue section. I actually witnessed and felt you thinking about your decision, where you were going to place the line. Chris, it was breathtaking! It was so amazing to see and feel your thought process. We students are so grateful for your natural gift that you so kindly share. Thank you! 😊
Hey Susie! I love hearing that you connected with my thoughts and decisions when I was making those lines-it's moments like these that really inspire me to keep sharing my process. Thanks for your kind words and for being such a supportive part this painting community! ❤️
@@chrisloudart Oh Chris, such a kind thing to say, thank you!
I love following your channel because I learn so much from you!
I'm so glad to hear that! 😊
I have my own voice in my work but that’s not to say that I don’t use what I learn from you. I absolutely do. Many, many practices you use, I follow. You have a very fine tuned imagination which creates your unique compositions. This gift can have a profound effect on all artists watching…if they are paying close attention.
Loved your comment...and it was such a feeling of déja vu because I wrote a comment almost exactly the same on another artist's RUclips channel/video. At a point in their demonstration, I felt like I was somehow actually IN the process because I "felt" their thinking in my own body and mind. It's a magical thing, and I'm so, so grateful for Chris, and for all of the artists sharing so transparently on RUclips. 🙏
GREETINGS FROM GERMANY ❤
Greetings from Colorado!
These are interesting, also from Quebec Canada.
Thanks so much, Nicole! I get many comments from Quebec 😊
Thank you for another inspiring video! I liked the verical way. I think Iill take my Posca pens out... 😊
Thanks, Ann! I had to go grab some fine tip Posca markers this weekend so I could give this a try on a larger canvas. Have fun!
OMG I love this! Thank you
I'm so glad! Thanks, Ann!
Cool ❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much, Ravinder!
I love your videos ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much, Guiza! I'm so happy to hear that!
got your 50 abstract pdf, im getting into painting, but i never learned anything about colours, thanks for all the efforts and videos.
Thanks! What type of painting are you working on?
@@chrisloudart oh, thanks for your reply, acrylics, id love to be less lazy and have the courage to express myself in colours on surfaces, id come to conclusion that what i try to do on surfaces is too clunky and i lack the routine of playing with colors more often and with less stress, and also id probably try more drawing which later would be colored more, rather than the classic painting appproach, also ive been drawing more in high school and clay modelling and never touched colors untill i was 27. ill start the 50 abstract tests from your lovely pdf file and will see if i can learn anything from that. once again thank you very much, your works are amazing
@@bodyhater Thank you so much! I think one of the best ways to jump in and learn color is to limit your palette and paint with only a few colors. It helps you grasp which colors work well together and what additional colors you can create by mixing them.
@@chrisloudart thank you, will try definetly.
ooooo this was very cool
Thank you so much, Mattia!
I love it!
Thank you, Amber!
It's going to take me time to get used to using a marker pen. I don't know if this will work for me. But it's definitely one more technique to try out some time. But... i heard a definite meow of approval 6 mins 43 seconds😊😊😊
Try it with a paint brush. I've done that with other projects. I'll admit it didn't come out quite as smooth for me, but still has a good look. Haha, yep, I think she gave me a thumbs up on this one.🐈⬛👍
Loved the colors and the lines…vertical was my fave too! Thanks Chris!
Thanks so much, Sherri!
Then there was Jackson Pollock.... lines and lines and more😅. Ann
I love diving into Pollocks paintings! So much get caught up in😊
Hi again Chris- question about the fine tip applicator you often use with mars black, do you just put straight paint in there, or do you mix the paint with a medium? And if straight paint, what brand or what consistency of paint, as I know there are several variations. Thanks.
Hey Ann! I typically mix my paint with a little water or airbrush medium to thin it out. You can use high flow paint as is in the fine tip applicators, but I like mixing my own. I use Winsor Newton Galeria or Liquitex Basics which are both medium body paints. I hope that helps. Here is a video I made showing how I mix the paint and fill the bottles. ruclips.net/video/u6WCxIRD0Nc/видео.html
@@chrisloudart Thank you SO much Chris once again for your help and information and the informative video! You always go above and beyond to answer questions and give feedback to your followers- I love that- it makes me feel like I have my very own personal instructor, as I'm sure others do as well 😊 🎨👌
It's my pleasure! I'm happy to provide answers and feedback, and it's wonderful to hear it makes a difference.😊
