One Way to Start an Abstract Painting / Art with Adele

ONE WAY TO START AN ABSTRACT PAINTING / How to start an abstract painting when you have absolutely no idea what to do can be a challenge….so I came up with ten ways to help you get started.
You can get the pdf of the “10 Ways to Begin an Abstract Painting” below.
On a 12x12” watercolor paper, I just fill the paper randomly with dots using a China marker, but you could use any pencil.
Then, using both oil pastels and paint, I create shapes guided by those dots.
This exercise could lead right away to a finished painting OR it could be a beginning first layer that you could finish with multiple layers.

Love this video! What kind of paint are you using?

[@404tita]

It's so fascinating !!! THANK you 💗 i was wondering what kinda of acrylic paint is you working with, cause the texture looks like gouache. I got curious about it. Can you tell us about It? Thank you ✨

[@bille77]

Hallo Adele! Thank you for putting up all that great content. Would you tell me what exact tear-off 🎨 you're using? I haven't really been able to find it on the interwebs. 👋🙂

[@MelodyMiroir]

That's a great idea !! What's the transluci liquid you are using at the right bottom of your page ? Thanks :)

[@silviatinytrancer5741]

This is amazing, how freeing, what is the whitish stuff to the bottom right hand corner of the paint set up? I doesn't look like paint. Is it glue?

[@artfelt2095]

Very interesting and inspiring video !!! What are those whitish blobs on the colors ....that you also have some on the bottom of the pallete separately ?? Curious to know !!

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Those are dots of acrylic gloss medium. I add medium to all my paints.

[@nicolemyer4220]

Thank you for this idea. What kind of paper do you use that can handle all the paint and not start to buckle? Is this water color paper? Thank you.

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

it is 140 lb watercolor paper.

[@Trusid]

Thanks for the demo Adele 🙏🏼 What medium are u adding here please, it’s on the bottom right thanks 😊

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

I’m using gloss medium.

[@Trusid]

@@AdeleSypesteynStudio Thank you kindly 😊 from Sydney Australia

[@gasconypassion8957]

Great, love it. Could you please tell me what blue tape that is? I am always ripping paper :-)

[@kateferrell6512]

it looks like regular painters tape from hardware store. i learned a trick - blow tape with a hairdryer to loosen adhesive before removing. works pretty well!

[@gasconypassion8957]

@@kateferrell6512 Thank you, great idea !!

[@zitaocarroll4925]

Hi Adele, what crayons/pastels do you use Many thanks
