Inducing Abstraction in Landscape Paintings
A 2-day painting workshop with Liz Morton
The natural world lends itself wonderfully well to abstraction. Nature’s range of light and atmospheric personalities; her variety of colors, shapes, and textures, are all inherently abstract. We will use ultra-simplification; reduction in detail (subtractive); expressive mark-making; texture effects along with color alteration and size distortion.as pathways toward abstraction.
