By Patrice McCoy


Artists are required to posses some crucial skills and knowledge to enable them produce original abstract paintings as is the case for other professional jobs. This kind of job is professional and requires one to have personal and professional skills to be successful. Lack of these essential skills is the main reason why many interested artists have failed in their works.

Good initiative and creative skills are necessary of any painter who wants to succeed in this type of industry. An artist should have initiatives in his work by coming up with projects and proposals out of their own initiatives without being guided. They are also required to be creative by developing innovative ideas in their minds which they translate into the actual picture.

Creativity is the core of every artist who wishes to sustain their work and it emanates from the imaginative mind of the person. Being creative means that the artist is not imitating others and his ideas are new and unique from the ideas of any other artist. Creativity comes in different forms such as in the design of the image in the mind and also in the actual working process.

Abstract art are meant to represent something and creative artists usually have ideas on what they intend their work to represent before even starting the actual work. Sitting down and figuring out how the end product should look like is highly advisable and is beneficial to the artist. This provides the artist with ideas on how to design the product that is relevant in the environment and also the clients.

Creativity can also be seen during the actual working in the way the artist mixes different colors of the paint, comes up with lines and other aspects of quality painting. Being creative could make the would be bad and dull image into a very appealing and attractive product. Artist may also use the existing picture and use creativity to make it more attractive than the original picture.

The next step will involve assembling tools and materials for the job and this include paint brush, the paint and the canvas to be used in doing the work. Expert painters usually have additional tools and materials depending on their experience and how they want the end product to appear. However, beginners are expected to have these items for they are enough for the work.

After acquiring the brush, the artist is required to have the paint in order to actualize any image they have in mind. Getting professional paint which is readily available in the market could help in coming out with quality product. Canvas may also be acquired by the artist but for beginners this does not have to be expensive or canvas but something cheap.

After assembling all these suppliers, the artist can now embark on the actual work. An artist is expected to have breaks in order to have a look at his or her work and assess whether they are on the right track. This will ensure that he or she comes up with the expected and original abstract paintings.
