abstract

Abstract art is art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality. Instead uses shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect. Strictly speaking, the word abstract means to separate or withdraw something from something else.

Abstract art is made up of six basic elements: Line, Texture, Shape, Form, Color, and Value. Whether you do abstract art, non-objective, or even realistic, you’ll find at least one, of these elements at work.

The Art Hive Collective has abstract artists in acrylic, alcohol inks etc.
