From "just a little bit abstract" to "completely abstract," Martin Smith demonstrates various approaches to abstract painting. He accomplishes this by examining the creative processes involved and more unusual techniques while focusing on ideas and themes as starting points. In addition, Martin Smith teaches how to experiment with color and composition as well as how to use watercolor, acrylics, mixed media, and collage in creative ways. Additionally, there are details on texture, straightforward printing, marking, color and its significance, and inspirations. In addition to Laura's vibrant, colorful paintings, several other contemporary abstract artists' works are featured in several projects.
