Abstracts: Techniques & Textures Book

You can learn all the tricks of abstract painting in this beautiful book from popular author Rolina Van Vliet.Rolina will show you how composition, primary and secondary visual elements are as important to abstract as they are to representational painting. Using a series of studies, Rolina analyses a wide range of methods, such as mixing by drip, sponge or gel medium, that allow you to control the way colour behaves on your surface.The book concludes with a look at freestyle techniques including such things as sandpaper and cling film.This is the most technical of the books about abstract painting that have appeared recently and it adds much to the more philosophical approach which these have concentrated on. However, it remains strongly visual and makes for a fascinating read.Search Press . Paperback . 160 pages . Colour throughoutRead More
