This is the end of the (regular) posts about 'high noon abstract art'. Probably none of the photos of these past two posts were taken during the time limits I concocted as my 'rule' in the beginning of the project anymore anyway. I'll still be taking photos of abstractions, and every once in a while I'll be posting them as well. But next year's daily art project is going to be slightly different.
So many of these photos are wonderful starting points for fresh art, or else link to something resonant. Today, no.23 leaps out at me - I've just seen some 18th century drawings made in black and red chalks, and am thinking about the possibilities of using just two colours. In the 21st century we have almost too much at our disposal in terms of materials; 250 years ago, artists "got good" at using a few media and stuck with that: it was an efficient way to earn their living!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you about the 'too many' things at our disposal, Margaret! Too many colours to choose from, too many different pens to try out, too many fabrics... And too many diversions to really get down to the deep interior of it all!
