I haven't talked a lot about the use of colors and abstraction to create art. I wanted to point out that you don't always have to make your world look like it does. For instance look at this picture below.
This picture by Robert Doesburg is of a certain animal. I am guessing that you can tell what type of animal it is even though the colors are not normal. So I am wondering what it would take for you to not know what type of animal a work of art is trying to describe. Can you guess this animal?
Again this work of art is not completely filled in and the colors are not normal, but you can probably still guess what this animal is. But can you guess these next three?
What makes some of these pictures easy to identify? What makes them harder to figure out, is it their colors or lines or shapes? What animal would you create adn how would you hide it?
