Introduction to Painting: Abstraction and Representational Art
G: 1.2Ac: Choose from a range of materials and methods of traditional and contemporary artistic practices to plan works of art and design.
A: When we talk about ABSTRACTION, we can look at the ideas of OBJECTIVE and NON – OBJECTIVE abstraction. Non – Objective os when we have ZERO reference to anything real or observed. In most of the works you have created thus far, the ideas are NON-OBJECTIVE. On the other hand there is abstraction based on observable things. Now… we are going to be dealing with a new style of painting (and you are going to be developing this over Thanksgiving break) and that is creating a work that is REPRESENTATIONAL. You will be creating a work of art that is based on the ideas of looking at and creating a work of art that is based on your observational skills. When it comes to observational imagery… observational art… what images are you drawn to?

Look at the setting of your camera and make literal note of what setting you are using. i.e.: I am making this photograph of my fish, Yves Klein, to demonstrate the composition of No Horizon, Frame Within a Frame, and Rule of Thirds. The principle is Balance (asymmetry) as the fish and bowl are pushed hard to one side of the picture plane. My Element is Space as I am creating a large negative space with the counter top and floor and positive space with the fish and bowl.
