Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world. Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality. The arts of cultures other than the European had become accessible and showed alternative ways of describing visual experience to the artist. By the end of the 19th century many artists felt a need to create a new kind of art which would encompass the fundamental changes taking place in technology, science and philosophy. The sources from which individual artists drew their theoretical arguments were diverse, and reflected the social and intellectual preoccupations in all areas of Western culture at that time.

by Roald U. Arndt 4 months agoYes , I think I see what you mean - the colours do repeat but the painting was done long before the digital image - interesting hey? and I posted them completley at random. -
by Adrian 4 months agoRoald, just that to my eye, i felt there was a portion in Colour Game that bore a similarity to the photo and assumed they were related. -

Not really - my painting and photography share 50/50 of the spare time I have available for creative persuits. I like to use cameras to create part/abstract images - see "Colour Game" here and some of my others in the profile.Thanks.
