A work of art is an individual effort which evolves from a response to a\u00a0visual\u00a0stimulus. It\u00a0develops\u00a0a personality of its own.<\/h2>\n

The painting below has lovely colors but it’s too busy. Everything is competing equally for your attention. If you look closely you will see in the foreground a mother quail and some chicks, which are lost in the flora. The father quail on the lookout in palo verde is also well hidden. Nice wild flowers, but also lost in the chaos. Before one can absorb the visual delights of this painting, their attention has already wandered off.<\/h5>\n

In an abstract painting the stimulus is ordering color, line, pattern, texture within a format. There is no obvious subject matter but one can still sense some measure of an affective quality.<\/h5>\n
Does the implied motion in this painting (below) make you dizzy?!<\/h5>\n

The abstract with the dark background has power and incipient\u00a0motion, but there is no center of interest. It hasn’t decided what to be yet.<\/h5>\n

^This painting can’t make up its mind whether it wants to be representational or abstract. The oddball flowers are obviously invented but the leaves are too realistic and out of scale.<\/h5>\n

The roses are okay, but the background is a sissy and looks weak. The leaves could have more variety of warm and cool colors.<\/h5>\n

This landscape has lovely wet-in-wet qualities, but the little blobs in the sky don’t work and the foreground mountains aren’t convincing. Nice color scheme though!<\/h5>\n
