Hi Everyone!
Another week gone by and it is time to party. Well party with paint. LOL I had time to do a bit of painting this week and I am really enjoying learning abstract art. I started doing 10 minute warm ups but 10 minutes gives me too much time to "think" so I tried 5 minute warm ups, not enough time to think. 8 minutes works for me. LOL I have prepped many sheets of Nicole's BeadBacking "NBB" to do my warm ups on. This saves lots of money on canvas. So here are several warm up pieces and a one done on canvas.
Thank you for joining in on my abstract journey. A big thanks to Eva and Kristin for hosting Paint Party Friday. So many talented artist from around the world join in to show what they are working on. If you want to get inspired, come see about Paint Party Friday. Maybe you will join in.
Have a great weekend everyone!
It is stormy here today so I couldn't get good lighting on this photo. But you get the idea.

It looks like you're having lots of fun! I like the different styles ...
Love the vibrant colors!Awesome!
I am so excited that you are painting abstracts. I find myself leaning more and more in that direction (something that surprises me) so it is so much fun to come here and see what you have created. All are wonderful but I am really drawn to the third warm-up.
Beautiful abstracts! I see movement and lovely textures! Wonderful!
I love all of the colors you are using! So vibrant! Great job!

Your abstracts are looking wonderful! I've tried before and just end up with a big splotchy mess so I always extra admire artists who can make something cool with abstract art. I love that red and blue combo.
really wonderful abstracts and even though I'm pretty much into color I love the muted black and white one. Happy PPF!
Beautiful abstracts! Wonderful colours and textures! My favorite is the first one! Really great!
Your abstracts look awesome! Beautiful motion and expression. Happy PPF!
Your sheets are great Nicole. Lots of different abstracts. You are really liking this type of work. It's great. Happy weekend to you.:) I wore the bracelet the other day. It is awesome.
I am very intimidated by abstracts. I really like your warm-ups, they look beautiful - great colors. One day when I feel brave I might give it a try.
Fun paintings, Nicole, with so much movement. Love the colors and action.
I am loving your Abstract art experiments, such wonderful textures, have a lovely weekend.

Very colorful! I think the next to last one is my favorite!
These are wonderful! I love the colors and textures!
It is so great that you are following your journey into abstract art. The results are wonderful. xo

They are all so cool! I hope you aren't throwing out your warm ups!
Abstract art is a whole new world. Love the pieces you've done. People sometimes think that abstract is easier to paint - but not good abstract.
The warm ups are so good!!!
I wasn't fond of abstracts....can't say that anymore now...I LOVE it now!
HPPF Nicole :)
Beautiful compositions, exquisite and beautiful colors, abstract creative!
Very interesting and rich in colours abstracts. Lovely warming up pieces, Nicole. Thank you for sharing
Abstracts are so hard and you are going great guns! Love these. xx
Wonderful work, dear Nicole! I love abstract paintings too and looking forward to see more.
Greetings from Erika
Abstracts really intimidate me even though I know how much fun they are. Yours are great, really love the second one!
I particularly partial to the black and white circular objects, gives an impression of moons. Nice abstract work Nicole.

Wow, it's great they're all so different! Sometimes that's the hardest thing!
Hi Nicole! I'm so glad you're enjoying abstract. I always feel drawn to it. I love the one in gray tones - very mysterious. If you're into exploring abstract some more, there's a fantastic book - Abstracts 50 Inspirational Projects by Rolina van Vliet. I was just reading my copy last night! You can find it on Amazon. I think you would have a blast with it. Happy painting!
LOVE! These are so colorful SO pretty - and I also love the idea of your daily warm ups. I'm trying to art journal more by getting up earlier and dedicating an hour in the morning to do it - but I love the 8 minutes idea! So funny :) xo
Such a fun exploration of color! SO cool!
