I receive all your e-mails every day and try to answer them promptly, but it’s not always easy.
When a request is recurrent, I use it as inspiration to make a video and an article so that everyone can benefit from it.
The most frequently asked questions are :
- “How do I find techniques for learning abstract painting?”
- “How do you make this gradient, this flow, these effects?”
- “How to create beautiful color harmonies?”
- “How to stop being afraid of the blank canvas, how to let go?”
- “How to be creative and find inspiration?”
- “How do I create a working environment for myself to paint?”
Ultimately, these questions are extremely common for the majority of people wishing to practice and take up abstract painting.
Taking the plunge into abstract painting: a delicate adventure!
It’s true that getting started in abstract painting can be very frustrating! You’ve got lots of ideas in your head, but you generally don’t know how to put them into practice.
You may be looking for specific books dedicated to the practice of abstract painting, but you find yourself faced with resources on acrylic painting, oil painting, figurative painting and so on.
And yet it would be interesting to find a resource dedicated to people starting out in abstract painting.
That’s why I decided to create my own method.
My method for getting started with abstract painting
I wanted to do something new, something different. To create a method that responds directly to your needs!
A way of supporting you by offering a medium that meets the needs of beginners in abstract painting.
A digital book and a video!
I produced a digital book of more than 130 pages and a video of more than 1h30.
My aim is to get you started in abstract painting as quickly as possible, with all the knowledge I’ve acquired over the last few years.
And let’s be honest, I too would have saved a lot of time if I’d been able to benefit from this kind of support back then!
I want to save you time and make sure you’re totally fulfilled in your passion!
The book will cover the following topics:
- Equipment (An overview of the equipment you’ll need to get started)
- Work environment (How to have an ideal work space for painting in good conditions)
- Color (here I’m talking about colors, blends and harmonies that are effective in abstract painting)
- Paint (presentation of paint types, different uses for abstract paint)
- Knife painting technique
- Brush / spalter painting technique
- Equipment maintenance
- Making an abstract painting from A to Z (Part on making a painting from A to Z, accompanied by a video lasting over 1h30)
- Inspiration & creativity (Different ways to never be short of inspiration again!)
- Letting go
- Self-confidence
- How to get your own style
Video: Creating an abstract painting
The book is accompanied by a video of over 1h30 in which I show you absolutely all the steps involved in creating an abstract painting.
This video is in real time (not accelerated), with full commentary. I explain absolutely everything I do.
Here are the different parts
