Painting a picture from a really terrible photo











I'm studying Laura Reiter's "Beginner's Guide to Abstract Art."
I'm trying to learn how to understand abstract art.
The first lesson is draw shapes, intersect them with a vertical and horizontal line, then add colors.
The second lesson is abstract a landscape.
I'm using the messy dark color prefilled ink brushes in my canson mixed media sketch notebooks Might go right over some previous sketches as I practice these abstracts.
I may work on these some more or not.
