One thing I discovered today is that abstract art is free and not trying to make it perfect.
One thing that stuck with me was that you are limitless on what you can do with abstract art.
This talk impacted my understanding of abstract art was that anyone can create abstract art and is a nice stress reliever for not trying to make the art perfect.

2. Imperfections and mistakes doesn't matter and some of those things are th best things int your work
3. You can never go too big with abstract art.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Not all art has to be a specific thing.
2)Take risks in your artwork
3) Abstract is basically all from an instinct and whatever you feel like putting on the canvas.

# data[].attributes.body
one thing that will stick with me is to explore and try new things. It is very freeing to just do whatever in your art and i need to try to explore more.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered a bunch of new techniques for painting, also abstract isn't structured

# data[].attributes.headline
One thing I discovered is that abstract art isn't supposed to be perfect and you kind of just play around with the different materials.

One thing that will stick with me and that I will use in my own art is to let my hand be lose and free when drawing. If my hand tightens up, it can hold me back from making good imperfections.

# data[].attributes.body
one thing that the artist talked about that will will stick with me is not thinking to hard and just letting your body flow into the work and not think too hard about the piece

# data[].attributes.body
this talk impacted my understanding of abstract art by teaching me that anyone can make abstract art, and that you cant mess up when it comes to abstract art.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stuck with me was Don't Worry, Just Work. It feels almost inspirational and since she said that I have just been deeply intrigued into her painting. Another thing that she said is that risk is very important. I always look for perfections in my art and I think that this was a great way of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing I think is going to stick with me is remembering that it doesn't have to be perfect. Art is never truly going to be perfect, or complete. I think it's really important to remember that there are no mistakes in art, and everything is fluid.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered you can make abstract art out anything and abstract art doesn't have a size. one thing i didn't know was that oil pastels and aryllic don't mix together. I also didn't know that you had to do acyllic before oil.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stuck out to me is the diversity of materials that she uses. She uses so many different mediums and applies them using so many different tools and techniques. This talk definitely showed me how carefree abstract art can be. You just paint whatever and however you feel like. There really is no plan when starting an abstract painting.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that will stick with me is to be free when doing art like this. Try to not think about what is going to happen or plan it out. Go with the flow and let things happen, if it drips dont worry. If the colors mix, dont worry. Free paint and just go and work. You could learn a lot out of free painting.

# data[].attributes.body
Something i discovered is how abstract art is used

2. Mistakes are perfect.

3.this talk impacts my understanding because it lets me know i can free paint and just work.

# data[].attributes.body
When she was talking about oil and acrylic, I didn't know that you couldn't layer them. I find that super interesting.
I understand that art is completely objective, but I've always had different expectations for my work. And her POV is very refreshing. To try to let go of your expectations of your work.
To let go of personal expectations for your work, and that to not limit yourself.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing the artist said that stuck with me is that experimentation is a really good technique for creating abstract art. It commonly leads to more creative ideas being developed and implemented into a piece of art. Whether it is different methods being used or different media, they can all make interesting works.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing I learned today is the techniques you can use when using spray paint on a piece.
Something that will stick with me in future projects would be to not overthink the initial inspiration for the project and that all mistakes should be celebrated to make the piece unique.
The tips and tricks about abstract art and the mindset we were given about it impacts my understanding of abstract art greatly.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that every thing dosent need to be perfect and dont over think anything your doing

# data[].attributes.body
She mentioned how you should never ever compare your art to someone and how its the worst thing you can do. I have always done that which has made me not as confident in my art. But because we have been in quarantine that has helped me focus more on my art instead of comparing it to others which made what she mentioned stick out to me.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like one thing that will stick with me that the artist said is that it is okay to make mistakes and mess something up. I always struggle with allowing myself to do that , so my art is often either too stiff or even overworked. I feel like she has encouraged me to be a little more free in my work.

# data[].attributes.body
I think my understanding of non objective art has changed from just being art that doesn't show specific objects or symbols to art that just is creating by will and no rhyme or reason. You can't exactly plan non objective art as it is from feeling and to be openly interpreted
.

# data[].attributes.body
It stuck with me when she said that mistakes aren't bad and add to the painting.

# data[].attributes.body
I think this really helped me grab onto the concept that uncolored places in you´re pieces are ok and they can still make the artwork you make look good. And that its ok to make the artwork random and let the mind take control of the art and not be so worried its not going to look good. She taught me to have self confidence in my work.

# data[].attributes.body
you can layer oil and acrylic
you dont have to have a plan you can just doodle till i get an idea
its from instinct

# data[].attributes.body
She talked about not comparing your artwork to someone else's because it might make you feel like yours isn't good enough. She also showed some cool techniques with spray paint which was cool to see.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that she talked about that I really liked was that is there are no mistakes when doing abstract art.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered how interesting abstract art really is, and how complex it can sometimes be.
I loved her use of colors and texture in her paintings.

# data[].attributes.body
one thing that she talked about a lot is being able to clear your mind and let your hand freely flow across the canvas. and i think that's something i will definitely use in future projects. i need to learn to not be such a perfectionist and let there be happy little accident.

# data[].attributes.body
one think i discovered was to always take a risk at painting. she showed the class how to draw with spray paint.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that no idea is stupid or not good. Art is subjective and it needs a free flow of creativity, even if that means trying something different. One thing that she mentioned, was this one artist that used actual nature in his artwork and would put canvas' outside for months and use that in his work. That's fascinating to me, my mind always thinks art needs to be clean and organized, but there's no limit, art CAN be dirty and unclean. I think this will help with letting my mind not hook on restrictions in my project.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing she talked about was spray paint, I never would of though to use spray paint. Maybe I will try using spray paint for a work of art.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing I discovered was that abstract art can start with any design or painting material.
One thing she talked about that will stick with me is that abstract art doesn't have an objective and that it can be anything you want it to be.
This talk impacted my understanding for abstract art because now I know that abstract art is limitless and that it doesn't have always to be perfect.

# data[].attributes.body
I love how she talks about self motivation by just letting yourself play around, because that's usually what happens to me. I don't always go in to a piece thinking I am making anything crazy or important, but sometimes I finish and look back and think "wow, I didn't plan on creating a project today, I was just doodling.".

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered that when you are making abstract art don't try to hard to make it perfect. It is supposed to be fun and messy. You should just explore the different materials and have fun.

# data[].attributes.body
one thing she talked about, that with stick with me is to be free. Have fun with ever thing and dont tighten yourself, and to be free and move around. Dont limit yourself and down yourself do the work and look at it form different perspectives

# data[].attributes.body
One thing she talked about was don't put any limitations on your painting and take the risk. I am definitely going to be using this in my future art because i always want my art to look perfect and to cautious to change something feeling like i am going to mess it up.

# data[].attributes.body
this talk helped me understand the actual process of abstract art, yo start with no plan just a mark on a canvas and you can make it whatever you want i think it's great because you aren't so worried about messing up, it's more of a journey

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that the artist talked about that will stick with me is to not try to perfect your abstract art and take risks.

# data[].attributes.body
one of the things the artist talked about is how you need to use your 5 senses when creating art work and that is something i did not know about.

# data[].attributes.body
She said not try to perfect the abstract art and try to take risks.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered how interesting abstract art is, even when it might not have a meaning. Her talk about how you shouldn't compare yourself to others, how there is no such thing as a mistake, and not to worry, just work will stick with me because I have the tendency to do those things and overthink.

# data[].attributes.headline
she talked alot about different ways of styles to go into the same piece but its also about taking risks on your work. I learned there are many different ways to do your work.

I liked that she talked about clearing your mind and letting your body do the drawing for you. Usually my best work is when I´m not thinking about it at all.

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed how she talked about composition, and I'm thinking of adding in what she said about turning the canvas and such to see how the composition of my art actually looks, it sounds like a good idea that helps in the long run.

# data[].attributes.headline
I discovered that spray paint is always an option in non-representational art. Something she said that will stick with me when I do my art is "if you can write, you can draw." I love this because it shows that you don't have to draw SOMETHING to DRAW something.

She recommended a book that I think I am going to look into. I'll take any advice to improve my skills or to get new ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stuck with me is how she was taking about clearing your mind. When I work I always think too much, so using this will help me a lot.

# data[].attributes.body
She spoke a lot about how it is good to be loos and take risks in your art. I hope to be able to keep that in mind when creating my own pieces.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered that I should let my hand just freely draw and clear my mind when drawing

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that she talked about was to not have a plan. To just do and don't think about it, I think that will stick with me when I do art. She also said  don't make a mess up a big deal just keep going. She also said that mistakes are the best things in art!

# data[].attributes.body
I liked what she said about how imperfections are good things to have. Mistakes are the best thing and I think that will help me with my art in the future. Another thing would be how she said art helped her express her words/emotions she had and put them on canvas, etc.
