[BAS Newsletter] 1st Friday Demonstration 7pm Friday 4th June by our popular member Colin Barnett "Abstracts"

[Paul Stringfellow]

Dear All,

Our next demonstration 7pm Friday 4th June will be given by our very own 
member Colin Barnet and will be on the subject of abstracts.

"Here is a general breakdown on my abstract journey and a basic 
breakdown on what I will be showing.

First off, my view on abstract creation is extremely broad and open. The 
intention is not to have an a preplanned idea of what the end goal is, 
or what a piece will end up looking like. For me it's ultimately about 
emotion, expression, creating visual interest, pleasing to the eye and 
the enjoyment of experimenting.

I have never been a great fan of abstract Art, but when I decided to 
give it a go, a few years ago. There was no turning back.

The demonstration time is limited, so I will do 3 fairly basic paintings 
to stay within the allotted time. The techniques I use are mostly 
layered, which means drying time between them, so I will do a few prep 
1st layer dried pieces (before I start) to show a more in depth view of 
my layering process.

For the Acrylic pouring, it involves a lot of time consuming paint 
preparation. Which I will explain also.

The paint styles I will do are:
*Acrylic pouring - swipe/dirty/ring (all 3 if time allows)
*Palet knife colour swipes on canvas sheets.
*Alcohol ink on Plastic.

Regards, Colin"
