Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art Date. Her theme is Expressionism. I found a good link that describes it here. And here is a video that also goes through the history of expressionism. However, I took my inspiration from Mark Rothko, an abstract expressionist painter, he was a pioneer in colour field painting. It is something I could more relate to.
This is my abstract expressionism piece, an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in alcohol ink:

Hi Christine,
I can see so many things in this piece a bonus of expressionism in abstract is when we turn them around and see even more. Fab ACEO.
Happy TAD Tracey x

Love this study. Very cool how the colors come together.
Awesome painting. Great colors.
Awesome, indeed!
Great Job! Combination of colors are beautiful. Thanks.
Christine,
You did this theme well. Abstract art is hard for my brain to process when viewing or creating. Is this something more inherit or taught? I believe it's the prior. I think the brain has to have a processor that can handle this line of thinking to shift and shape a normal view into something different. I wish I could bend my mind to accomplish interesting artwork. Now...when I look at your painting the first thing that comes to mind is volcano lava flowing toward the sea or maybe it's a sea of molten lava. Am I even close to your painting represents or maybe it's not meant to symbolize any particular thing, just how the mind translates it. See, I'm not very good when it comes to abstract. I salute your abilities, my friend! Thanks for stopping by today.
Gorgeous in its simplicity. Bravo

Cathy my inspiration was a picture of a bird sitting on a branch on a Kleenex box! I was attracted to the colours on the picture so I used the colours to create my abstract. Just a smidgen of black to represent the bird's head, the brown for the background, the red for the bird's body, green for the leaves on the branches...crazy I know. I drew the actual painting on an upcoming PPF post if anyone is curious.
Amazing :) Really great!

Great use of colours. This piece lends itself to individual interpetration.

I love the colors on this one.
Te quedo muy bien te mando un beso
...I love the pop of color.
Well thank you for the posts on expressionism ... it makes much more sense to me now. I love how your painting took on new meaning after I read about it. I can see an evolving level of awareness all the way up to anxiety and/or anger all surrounded by the blasé general public. I love how art is in the eyes of the beholder ... I wonder what you were thinking when you painted this. So, great job, Christine, and thank you for enlightening me :)
