Beautiful Oops

Crazy Rug

Colored Pencil, Marker, Pens

8x11

This is my Beautiful Oops artwork. I went for a more abstract method rather than an intentional method because I wasn't sure what to do with my random black paint splotches. I separated the paper in to sections, and created some random patterns in each spot. I used to hate abstract art, but when I didn't know what I wanted to make, I started to just create random pieces of art and slowly got into abstract creations. I first started out with just colored pencils, but then I wanted to make my piece more bright, so I started using marker, and alternated between both materials. I really didn't have an idea of what specific patterns and colors I wanted to use, so I looked up random patterns and drew them on each section. After, I closed my eyes and picked 3-4 items from my art material pouch and used them for each section. After I finished, I decided to go in with some pens and add a bit more texture by drawing lines. I'm not too sure what my next steps could be since this whole piece was very un planned, but I'm super happy with how it turned out overall.
