I always like to challenge myself......and lately I have be feeling very abstracted...... Late summer is always a slow time for me so I am able to play little more in the studio.  This is a great time to mess around with color, pattern and design.  My Itsy Bitsy Abstracts are a perfect venue to play with color and design on a small scale, to see if they would translate into a larger format.

I want to do a whole series of these during my 100 day challenge. A 100 Days will carry me into Fall and the Open Studio Tour but working an hour a day designing an abstract study is doable.

Abstracts are not that easy to get right.  I always feel a non-objective painting is hardest still because you can't catch the viewers eye with subject matter.  It is purely design and color driven.  I have always been drawn (pun) to a good non-objective abstract and I would be grateful to achieve a few really  good studies that I could than translate to a larger scale.

I will be posting more of these Itsy Bitsy Abstracts.  I would appreciate your feedback.... Tell me what you like or dislike about non-objective art...

If you see something of mine that you think I should blow-up..... HA HA.... please designate if you mean destroy or just make larger; give a shout out.  I will be posting these each day on my Face Book Page.

Hey, you artists out there..... I challenge you too!   Let's see what you come up with, and I will put my favorites of your abstracts on my Page.
