Thanks for your comments, guys!

@nblx:
Thanks, that means a lot coming from you!

@Reprav:
Thank you, I'm glad you like it!

@Jaystar:
That is awesome! It was not intentional as I try to create a feeling but keep it abstract, I do not translate pictures or images into abstract, just feelings. I'm happy that you see something in it, I see it as well now! Makes me think I make this for a reason. Thanks again!

@Django77:
I try to make art and when a piece feels good to me, I call it finished. On these pieces I do not have a image or specific feeling in mind, I create what feels good to me. Geometry has always been a passion of mine (if you see my old textures, you know why ;]) so that's why I use that a lot. There's just something about the square, triangle and circle to me that I cannot fathom, I love it.

Long story short, I try to transfer how I felt at the time when I made the piece to you guys. The beauty of abstract is that my personal feeling could initiate a different personal feeling for you.

It's hard to explain, haha.
I added a few more to the first post!

Have you ever tried to design software interfaces or do some web design?

Yes I have, but only the designs.
I have never really coded it since I didn't want to spend so much time doing that haha.

However, I've been meaning to get into that as I'm slowly starting up a design bureau.
Not yet self providing, I still need a job but I need it to get the contacts ;]

That last one makes me feel like I am laying down, looking into a starry night sky, wondering where the times have gone....

I like abstract art, and these are great in my opinion. Goodjob.

Hey guys!
I've awoken from my slumber and got off my butt for once!
As some of you know I've been busy with photography a lot lately, not much time for abstract art.
But reading back your appreciative comments made me decide that I should post some more.

I'll update the first post with more abstract art.
Hopefully you guys can convince me to make one every week, I need motivation but I'm lazy!
Help me make art ;]

Also, I now realise that I start to dislike 003 and 005 and that I start to like 004.
Well, 003v02 is still kind of decent. 005 is just plain puke in my eyes now. I know so well, I made that in a presentation at school.
No wonder it's rushed.
004 is not really up to my standard but composition wise it starts to grow on me.
I might change that.

006 and 007 are up!

007 reminds me of this



i'm not sure how people can c&c this. abstract can be whatever it is aslong as it doesn't resemble anything in particular. but ofc 3 mirrored forests and 2 mirrored logs/park benches (talking about 006) aren't obviously anything since there's no such thing irl, although those elements that you see are very clear if they're seen individually. 002 seemed the most abstract in my opinion, followed by 003, but this last one is a bit more like a futuristic poster/painting.

001 and 005 are the same as 003 imo
004 looks like a weird photo of the sunset with changed colors to me
i don't like 006 at all i've explained why. also the split didn't start in the corner, unless you meant it??1
sadly in 007 you can see trees and clouds

that's my opinion and c&c (if you can actually c&c abstract (you can make anything become abstract wtf :||||))

oh btw you should totally totally stop making splits with opposite corners and improvise a bit more

how did you get the beautiful marbly/granity texture on 003v02?
was it through brushes textures or filters?

@pal:
Thanks for the CnC!
For me abstract doesn't have to be just shapes, as long as I can see something else in it or if it's not clearly a tree or whatever, it's abstract.
The fact that it's not precisely in the corner is probably due to the fact that I scaled it down form a pretty huge image.
Or it's just messy and I missed it.

I don't agree that you can't CnC abstract, though.
I do agree that it's harder than let's say a painting because abstract is more about feeling than about the ability to paint.
That's why I like it so much that people comment on this because I can see what everyone feels, some like it, some hate it.
This is all valuable information for me.

Through the years you'll receive some sort of vision, you like the look of some things but dislike others.
And through the years that'll change. If people like my work and more importantly if I like it, I'll continue with this setting.
If everyone hates it I'll start to doubt myself and try new things, ultimately coming up with a personal style.

I agree that I should variate some more, this originally started as something I would do in the train to my uni, now I live in the city so I don't need to ride the train anymore.
This means that I don't need said "recipe" to make something in an hour of two, three.
There's something nice about mirrored things though, I really like it.
I might just continue with this style and make subtle changes or overlays with lines to break the splits.

Thanks for the CnC!

@Dothgar:
The picture is in the description, all I used was that photo.
I cut out several parts and laid them on top with different overlays, I think.
Changing colours and doing several other things, I'm not too sure as it's a while ago..

Updated.
I think I could've done more but I like how this looks.
Not sure what I should change here.

so all you did was overlay the curtains on the newspapers? that's even more simplistic than the others. once again, i don't call that abstract
