      Can you suggest an effective way to do this?

      I think it is important to sign all artwork. You want to use something archival and not water soluble. You could use graphite,, Gelly Roll pens, and archival ink pens for drawing to do the job. Watch this short video for more info czcams.com/video/i9AMC83KXb0/video.htmlsi=kPrs6y5EXHcb7QOd

    If you can tell what it is, it's not abstract. It's impressionism.

    • @pattscrivenerartist
      @pattscrivenerartist  Před rokem

      This is a big topic! According to Sotheby’s “ Impressionism describes a style of painting developed in France during the mid-to-late 19th century; characterizations of the style include small, visible brushstrokes that offer the bare impression of form, unblended color and an emphasis on the accurate depiction of natural light.” Tate’s description of abstract - Abstract art is art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect.”
