Abstract Letters
Sometimes it’s hard for an artist to decide what to draw or paint. Many artists work in an abstract style, more about line, shape and color than a subject. The following method works great to get you working in an abstract style. Fill an entire entire sheet of paper with letters and/or numbers. Use letters and/or numbers in different sizes and positions. Make sure many letters/numbers are connected. Have some coming right off the page.! If you want to include names or sentences, feel free. Trace over all of the lines you created with a dark color such as black. Then, using a vairety of colors, color most of the white spaces in between the letters/numbers. Use any materials you have around the house. This would make a great painting project, if you have paints and brushes. Have fun! I would love to see your work. You can send it to me at goeckea@dearbornschools.org
Hi Mr. Goeke! I made one of these along with my girls (Gia and Isla Dowhan) and we all enjoyed it so much! Thank you for bringing engaging art activities into our home <3
