Exploring Compositions in Abstract Art | What Makes a Good Abstract Painting | Real Painting Samples

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- In this weeks video, I explore Composition in Abstract Art, an share painting samples that actually show these compositions. I talk about the two concepts that make up what I personally believe to be strong principles in creating my abstracts and how knowing composition might help in getting "unstuck" or help when a painting is just not working.

Thanks for that, Cheryl it’s been a while since I thought of composition I used to do lots of cruciform designs working to a focal point using shapes colour harmony and accents, then you get a year or two down the line and you can forget this design principle and just do your own thing, thanks to you I will go back to setting out my work write it down and select colours I will use and marks I will make and the composition bearing in mind lights and darks even the rule of thirds, as these methods are proven over many many years to be pleasing to the viewers eye so thank you for this refresher course xx
thank you for watching!! And for your incredible comment. I think value and differences in shapes make the most difference in by work personally. I wish you so much success in your painting.
W😊W!! I'm so glad you brought this wonderful video back around!! I hadn't seen it yet and I learned so much!! ~❤~ ~xo~ Thank You!!
You are so welcome! You know I love my black and whites!!!
These paintings are unreal!!!!
Thank you for watching!
I almost clicked off of your video because you didn't feel confident about your work to me. I stuck with it, and I LOVE your work. I love the variety, I think they are all executed and represent the compositional ideas powerfully. I also love that I sense that you are always questioning yourself to critique and improve. Bravo, you are a true artist. 👩🎨
I'm so glad you stayed. I take risks all the time as an artist and feel this pushes to new found surprises. Thank you for your comment.
Thank you Cheryl. Saw many videos of composition in theory but yours is the first one I saw compositions in the actual paintings. You showing it in your own painting has made it easy for me to understand. Thank you once again.
I am a visual learner and thought the more visual approach would explain it better, so happy it helped!! Thank you for sharing a comment
Thank you, I learn so much from you. Showing real examples helps in such a wonderful way! I am sorry about your mother, I send a big hug.
Thank you so much! Composition is an area that can really help us!! I find it helpful, but actually after the importance of value!!! Thank you so much for your comment
I'm so pleased that I've 'discovered' you. Thank you for such a clear video - I now feel empowered! (Btw, the drawing of the resting woman at the end of the video was done by Matisse.)
thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. Thank for that extra information too!!! I do see it now!!
This is even better than watching people paint! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful paintings and the teaching.
My pleasure 😊thank you so commenting, i appreciate it
Thanks for the composition types descriptions and examples. The three point or triangular looks like an Henri Matisse piece or a work done after Matisse. I've seen that exact composition and subject matter in his work.
Yes!!! I think your right!!!! It is beautiful, isn’t it!!
Loved this ~
You’re such a great instructor/teacher. Sorry to hear about your mama 😢. I just lost my 101 year old grandad, then 3 weeks later I ended up in hospital discovering I had a rare aorta issue called fmd… fibro muscular dysphasia. I missed multiple videos of yours and missed your exit for 8 weeks; however, I’m glad we’re both back and onward with our purposes and honing in on them, as we continue our journey of growth
oh wow, take care of yourself Tiffiny!!! Health issues are so hard to deal with as they take forefront of our minds. I will certainly think of you my sweet friend. I am glad you are back watching and it is my hope you continue to heal.
Hi, Cheryl! Thanks for a really well-done explanation of different compositions. Your insight about muscle memory is valuable; I'm still learning and hoping that good compositions come intuitively for me, eventually. I'm saving this to watch again.
I have been doing some thinking about the muscle memory and the other aspect in our art that voice that is within each of us as artists and how it comes out when we let ourselves start to explore in our art.
Thank you for a great video! I love your art. 😊
Thank you so much 😀I so much appreciate your being a subscriber too, that means so much to me
Thank you Cheryl on this fabulous video on different compositions in art. Showing your paintings as examples was real helpful.❤
Glad it was helpful! If you are up for more composition videos I have one with a 20 page tutorial under my Artisan Membership. If you are not ready for that commitment, it is so ok, but thought I would mention it. I will be going through many elements of abstracts in the next 5 months or so.
Hi Cheryl, Im so sorry about your mom...I lost mine too and my heart goes out to you. Nothing replaces that love. Thanks for all you share. I love coming to this inspirational, warm place:)❤🙏 it was so great to see your beautiful paintings!
I’m sorry you lost your mom too! I have a lot of her traits, and find I’m now closer to my dad! Thank you for visiting my channel and leaving a comment!
Such a useful video. Not only in helping to give direction to a painting you may be making but also in how to view and understand art works. I hope your insights will stay with me for some time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Glad it was helpful! Composition is huge!!! If you are ever interested, i am doing a series of the elements of art under my membership currently. I did a 20 page one on composition one for September. I will be hitting on more composition and then value, etc. If you ever want to do a deeper dive.
Thank you, the examples really helped.
Glad to hear that! Thank you again for visiting my channel and taking the time to leave a comment it means a lot to me
Wow that was really interesting and helpful! Thank you so much ❤️
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Hi Cheryl, this is a great video and your explanations with paintings that illustrate these compositions are much easier to understand than just looking at a diagram of compositions. The paintings are awesome, as usual. I was a little confused thinking that a piece should start with a specific composition in the diagrams. Personally, it's difficult for me paint that way, and go with the flow until something starts to happen during the process. Landscape is easier in that the composition seems to usually be horizontal.
I hoped it might help bring compositions into a relatable conversation!!! Remember, the usage of values and then the differences in the objects seems to help me the most in my abstracts
I just have to hope and pray by the time my painting ends there’s composition.
This is an area many artist struggle with!! Watch my last video Ashley for a tool I use and do to help me take the painting to a finish if I am uncertain!!
@@CherylWilsonArt will do thank you!!
It kind of seems like your balanced composition‘Emotional Conversation’ could be seen as a 3 point triangular composition: there’s the leaf shape over the writing on the left, and the darker markings to the right making a triangle. 🤔
I love your viewpoint!!! I love your interpretation of it too. Yes, I see that!
Thank you for your videos, so helpful and inspiring! I love you fab blue necklace.
Oh thank you! I loved making this one!! I am also enjoying finding new fun jewelry to make my day just a tad more quirky for me!!
Great job explaining Art Elements
Thank you so much 😀
This is so helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! thank you so much for commenting. I appreciate it
Enjoyed listening and seeing your examples, very useful, thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it! I enjoyed putting this one together!!! Thank you for your comment.
Thank you so much, your necklace is gorgeous, I have some earrings that match the color.
Wonderful! I am enjoying new necklaces lately as they just make me do a tad more to get ready and that makes my dressing more "intentional" I bet your earrings are pretty!!
Thank you for sharing a wonderful video packed with so much relevant knowledge/skills. 👌‼️♥️TOOM@CapeTown
Glad you enjoyed it! I enjoyed making that one!!! thank you for your comment. You are so kind to be so supportive to me and my channel!!! You really need to subscribe my friend
thought yr necklace was a good design element! outsize in shape and colour. got from nick wilton the principle of scale. either outsize and/ or minute is striking . guess imbalance! stop waffling robert. great stuff as always. best r
You are a true artist as you’re even looking at what I’m wearing, and talking about nicks principles of balance and bringing in a large object, and I absolutely love that!!!! I absolutely enjoyed your waffling Robert
This was a very helpful video, thank you! I have a question. If you create intuitively, do you begin to push and edit the composition towards a specific direction at some point, like after adding beginning intuitive layers? Or do you continue intuitively all the way through and only notice the composition in the very final layers or after it's essentially finished?
Normally, I create and paint as I feel the painting taking me. It is as you say intuitive all the way and in the end stage, IF the painting is not working for me I go into composition mode and see what might change!!! There are days all the paintings work and days NOTHING works, I ride out those days. I do many layers normally, so I have to wait for things to dry many days!!
Thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH, this was so kind. It encouraged me.
