Keep adding paint until you get something.
Use shape and form and color to say something different to every observer.
Never finish the work, only abandon it. You’ll rediscover it later.
Don’t accept the first day’s effort.
If you hate it, add paint.
If it’s the wrong color add paint.
Paint until you are satisfied with it or have given up on it or have moved on.
Spend every penny you have on it and then put it up on the net and paint another.

My images are early internet. File size was important then. I have been asked to provide high density images. This is my first. You can scroll around in it and see how much oil paint I wasted. It can also be reproduced
I called it Stairway but you may call it whatever you please. It was painted abandoned for years and painted again. It is 48″ x 24″ on canvas and can be swept away by a mere $1000. If you are in Africa and need to get the General’s Wife’s millions out of the country then I’m your guy.

Abstract Art Paintings by David Michael Jackson

Yes these are abstract paintings. This gallery is composed of images with no names so you can make stuff out of the images own your own. Abstract paintings lend themselves to interpretation in different ways by different people. Abstract art or abstrart has it’s beginnings in the early 20th century
Wiki describes abstract art as follows:
Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world.
We live in the world however! Abstract art can also suggest things from the world through our imagination. We may see a cat, others a dog so to speak. Any interactive form of art involves the imagination of the viewer. That is why i add shape to the equation.
Thank you for viewing these paintings.

Yep he’a an abstract buffalo alright, sometimes called a Fubalo my my late wife Janet. She was great at naming things. She named our cat Backup, another one Mindy Clark, and our dog Schmutt.

So anyway it’s an abstract buffalo because she said it was and so it is.
To me it looks like a cross between a rodent and a bird but I don’t think anyone will ask for that.
Art is about surprises and sometimes modern art needs to show up in unexpected places like subway walls and buffalo’s that aren’t quite buffalo’s.

Sexy little mouse?
I usually am awarded this kind of keyword. A mouse is just what I made of it. Others see something else maybe. It was the purpose to let the viewer make his own decisions as to what it is. That doesn’t work out in this venue, the internet art gallery. My robot friends want to know where to put it. Someone will actually ask for an abstract mouse painting. I know these things because I’m already there for cat, turtle and a bunch of other abstract animals. At least my abstract cat painting is an abstract. Most of the others look like cats. LOL. There is another artist somewhere saying, “At least my abstract cat looks like a cat.” LOL again.

So this is my abstract mouse painting. I have to keep these two painting apart to protect the mouse.
