Abstract Art Seascape art Video

When painting abstract art it is more than just painting a bunch of marks on canvas. There is also a third component and that is the idea or concept you are trying to paint. It is the difference between seeing a solid object and the abstract thought about it. In this case I am painting abstract art using my video as reference for inspiration.

For Example:  You see in this short 10 second art video showing breaking waves against a jetty that is close to our home.  As I have said before we are only a couple blocks from the ocean and visit it almost daily and see it everyday. You may or may not see the influence of the waves and the sea.  But I see the different patterns that may show up and the feel of the ocean past where the waves are breaking.  And I see the colors.  Somehow my mind scatters all this visual information in my brain and out comes abstract art.  I don’t know how it works but that is how it comes out. It is an abstract seascape although you may not see it that way.  And that is fine too.  It can be whatever you want it to be.
