This neutral painting is inspired by African art and depicting Kenya in its texture and color. This mixed media textured wall hanging measures 30 x 30 and has a beautiful array of fibrous materials with black, purple, copper, gold and silver pieces on top. I've then taken wax and cotton threads and pierced the large artwork with sewn strings throughout, giving the ethnic decor visual interest. This is a sophisticated piece perfect in an industrial loft, man cave, modern hotel, or contemporary studio. Consider it a beautiful wedding gift or housewarming present too!

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 newest 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.
