🎨 Discovering Abstract Art
Introduction
Abstract art is a special kind of picture where shapes, colors, and lines tell a story without looking like real things. It lets our imagination run wild!
What Is Abstract Art?
- Instead of drawing a tree or a cat, an artist might paint swirls, blocks, or splashes.
- The picture can feel happy, calm, or even funny, just by the way the colors mix.
How Do Artists Make It?
- Pick A Feeling – maybe excitement or peace.
- Choose Colors that match that feeling.
- Play With Shapes – circles, squares, squiggles, or splatters.
- Add Lines that move around the page.
Artists often use brushes, sponges, or even their fingers!
What Can It Feel Like?
- A bright red splash can feel like a warm hug.
- Cool blue circles might feel like a gentle rain.
- A mix of many colors can feel like a fun dance.
Try It Yourself!
Grab some paper and crayons or paint. Close your eyes, think of a happy memory, and then draw the colors and shapes that come to mind. No need to make a picture of anything you see – just let the feelings guide you.
