"What can a line Do?

In Abstract Art, what can a line do?

Line art has been around from the earliest attempts by man to depict his thoughts. Line can mean so many contradictory things.

A line can lead you on the wrong path. Or it can direction your eye to a focal point. A line can define, limit, separate and when connected to other lines, frame or enclose an area.

A line can be confusing, it can be amusing. It can be expressive. It can be inflated.

A line can obscure and obfuscate. A line can lead to better understanding.

There are straight lines and there are squiggles. There can be lines of strict demarcation. Some lines define a boundary. Some define a home, town, city, state or country.

Here are a few of my line drawings.

Abstract Drawing- A new form emerges

A new form emerges from the barren plateaus of a blank paper. It is pen and ink that extracts it from the mind to the paper.

Notes from"Kandinsky"
Today, I'm reflecting on this quote from Kandinsky:
"The work of art must serve the development and refinement of the human soul: indeed, art is the "daily bread" of the soul. The artist, Kandansky continues, is no Sunday's Child of life. " He has a difficult task to fulfil, which often becomes a cross to bear. He must know that every one of his actions and thoughts and feelings constitutes the subtle, untangible, and yet firm material out of which his works are created, and that hence he cannot be free in life - only in art."

Such profound statements must be digested slowly. What are your views on the opinions of Kandinsky, the father of abstract art? Did his work reflect his words?

Wall of Silence

Wall of Silence

In many high-crime communities, you dare not speak out or report what you see.

This Abstract artwork evolved using oil pastels, Employing layers of color then scratching away the upper surface to reveal the underlying colors. Metaphorically revealing the 'truth.' Injustice is fast and violent. Justice is slow, tedious and unreliable. Silence is safer. Safety is sense. It seems.
