Steps To Making An Abstract Watercolor Painting

By Serena Price


Many people think that making an abstract watercolor painting is very easy because the artist may not seem to look like he is creating anything. Most people think that abstract artists would actually just paint with random colors and at random strokes. However, many people do not know that there actually is a process for that.

Of course before anything else, one has to first go to the art store and buy some of the necessary things. Now the very first thing that one will be ending would be some brushes and some paints to start working. From there, get a cup, fill it up with some water and set up a canvas in order to start working on the artwork.

The very first step in this process would be to look for an object that will be the object of the artwork. Of course one may choose what he would want as an object for the artwork as long as it does not move at all. When choosing the object, one has to make sure that he has a certain connection to that object so that he can actually paint it.

Now if one is just a beginner, then he it is actually best that he would first create a point of reference that he can follow. In order to create this point of reference, he would have to first lightly sketch the object on to the canvas so that there may be something to follow. Now if one is already a seasoned painter, then he may skip this step as he would already know how to paint directly.

Now the very next step would be to take a close look at the drawing of the object he made. Conceptualizing is very important as this point because the artist will now be trying to visualize the outcome in his mind. So all he has to do is to think about how he perceives the object and then put it down into the canvas.

Once that is done, then he can start mixing the paints and start working on the project. Of course he may start with one stroke of any color and just let his creative juices flow out. Of course the strokes that he will use would be based on the light drawing that he made a while ago.

The last step here is to edit the artwork a little bit by adding a bit more layers to add some color and strokes. Now editing the artwork is very important because it will either make or break it. So one has to just continue putting some more strokes and colors that are nice so the finished outcome is beautiful.

So if one would follow these steps to making an abstract watercolor painting, then he may come up with a beautiful finished product. Of course he has to go through a process of conceptualizing before he comes up with a finished product. As long as one follows the process, then he will not have a hard time starting from scratch.
