I was moseying around the web looking for pictures of faces for my face quilts and masks and came across this site about abstract painting. It has some good information on how to paint an abstract painting that is certainly also of interest to quilters.
Not only that but there is a short history of abstract art. It took me back to Salamanca and our last Spanish course there. One of the teachers gave a series of talks about Picasso and was explaining how he developed his Cubist style. I was pleased at the time how much I understood and obviously some of it stuck!
Third bonus point for me is that there are some good faces in the paintings on the site to provide food for my imagination for my face series.
And finally I love the use of yellow on the site and in the paintings.
