Learn everything you need to know about abstract art with this instructive guide that helps intermediate-to advanced-level artists:

  • Develop different methods and applications of color, texture, and materials with step-by-step exercises
  • Explore the different styles of abstractionism
  • Apply practical techniques that develop a personal abstract style
  • Select and approach the first abstract project
    With hundreds of photographs throughout, this exhaustive resource of easy-to-understand techniques will free artists to explore a new abstract art project, from earliest conception through to completion.
