Articles / Blog Posts / Commentaries
 Below are links to / hard copy of interesting Blog posts / articles / commentaries about making abstract art.
Soroya French. "If you feel the urge to create art but are stuck for ideas, identify the elements that excite you artistically and you will never be short of inspiration. Is it colour, light, shadows, dramatic contrasts or landmarks that most excite you? Narrowing down all these options will help you to get a step closer to what inspires you to pick up your paint brush."

A source of inspiration is not static - it is an evolving concept as you gain more experience along your artistic journey"
                                                                       in Contemporary Landscapes in Mixed Media..
