This piece is in the series named after people and it's called Sarah, after a good friend who is beautiful inside and out, colorful and vibrant through and through. It celebrates what I love about abstract art--whatever you see is what it is! A beautiful turquoise / teal blue background is topped with paint splatters, well-placed drops of India ink, and paint that has been slid around with one of my unusual painting tools that is far from a brush! You can see many colors--green, gold, purple, blue, and navy in this heavy textural piece.

ABOUT ABSTRACT ART by Susan D. Sharp
Whether you love it, hate it, or don't understand it, abstract art can be boiled down to this definition by Dean Nimmer: "Abstraction literally means the distancing of an idea from objective referents. That means, in the visual arts, pulling a depiction away from any literal, representational reference points. You can also call abstract art nonrepresentational art."
We generally think of abstract art as an early 20th century phenomenon encompassing three genres: Impressionism, Post-Impressionism and Cubism.
So we have art that isn't supposed to necessarily look like anything and yet if you ask 10 people they might all have an interpretation of what it is. When I discovered abstract art, I felt at home....what you see is what you see, what you want to see, what you can imagine it is!
Names associated with abstract art include Wassily Kandinski, Piet Mondrian and Henri Matisse and Paul Klee to name a few.
For more about abstract art, research the terms abstract expressionism, abstract impressionism and major figures like Kandinsky, Pollack, De Koonig, Rothko, and Klee.
