You have probably spent   hundreds or thousands of dollars for books, tapes and workshops.  Many artist   charge $75, $100 or more per day for workshops.  A five day workshop can   easily cost more than $1,000 dollars with tuition, travel, lodging, food, etc.
I recently spent over $1,000 for a 5 day workshop with a very well known artist and by the third day I was so disappointed I was ready to go home.
This is a collection of abstract painting techniques and ideas from 27 accomplished abstract artists and 45 pieces of abstract art work.
This is actually volume two in the "A Walk Into Abstracts" series.  Volume one was a massive collection of abstract art and so popular, I felt that artists were franticly searching for new abstract painting techniques.   So, I contacted 27 of my favorite abstract artists and asked them to contribute to this book.
Most of the abstract artists featured in this book would say that their art is more   real than other painting styles as the colors and textures they create are   real.
Realize that you can create your own masterpiece.  You will understand each   artist’s methods of painting and use of tools.  Don't just copy what other   artists are doing, but use these abstract painting techniques to develop your own unique style.
Artists are constantly looking for new forms of expression and this guide offers   you the opportunity to satisfy these needs with abstract painting.  This is a   practical guide so I have included artists that I like their work and their   “working process”, which you will need to familiarize yourself with before you   start a painting.
These working processes will help you learn abstract painting.  Develop your   own watercolor painting techniques or acrylic painting techniques and unique style from the clear information on methods,   materials, and techniques used by professional artists.
I am very pleased to be able to introduce you to this unique way of learning   and to discover what abstract painting is all about.  After reading the   working process and studying each artist’s work, you can then strike out on a   path entirely of your own and develop your own style.
Even if you do not have drawing or painting experience, you can learn the   abstract methods without any complicated techniques.  Even if you prefer to   paint realistic art or semi abstract art, abstract art can help you get motivated to develop your own   original, individual and creative art.
Inside "A Walk Into Abstracts" you will find 48 stunning abstract paintings by 27 artists.    All the artists have a picture of their abstract art and their “working process” on how   they did the painting from beginning to end.  Their materials, techniques, and   work sequence.  Every working process is provided with one picture of their   abstract art painting.
They are not intended for you to copy, but to help you produce your own   original abstract artwork.  There is a lot of information to take in, but do enjoy...
