Art 3: Abstract and Nonobjective Painting
Abstract Painting: breaking away from traditional representation of physical objects.  It explores the relationships of forms and colors, loosely representing the objects being expressed. 

Nonobjective Painting:  no subject matter present beyond the colors, patterns, textures, and shapes used and expressed for their own sake.

PLEASE NOTE:  People often get these terms mixed up or refer to Nonobjective Paintings as Abstract Paintings...but now you know the difference! 

ASSIGNMENT:
After our discussion of Abstract and Nonobjective painting processes, you will be creating 4 paintings (2 abstract and 2 nonobjective) simultaneously using the long brushes attached to yardsticks.  This will help you stay loose during the process.

1. Research examples of both kinds of painting.  
2. Choose a subject matter for your abstract paintings.   
3. Await instructions.  Each day you will be painting a loosely directed layer on your nonobjective paintings and adding to your abstract paintings until all four are completed.

Techniques to employ in abstraction:  
Distortion                       Simplification  
Transparency                Unusual Color
Overlapping                   Fractured Lines
Exaggeration                 Geometric Shapes

TECHNIQUES IN ACTION:
Blog Post:
1. What Elements and Principles of Design do you have to pay attention to in creating a successful abstract or nonobjective painting?
2. Critique your paintings.  Which one do you like best?  Which had the best composition?
What did you learn from this experimental art process?
