Abstract choices - Imi Knoebel

Deciding what to keep at and what to ignore when making abstract art is fun game. The German artist Imi Knoebel found his own way of making art. In this video I make my version of his art and explain and show how I work. At first it looks all that simple, but slowly it gets more complicated. Making my own version of his art is a fun activity with lots of options.

In almost all my videos I use with Winsor&Newton Galeria acrylics, if not, I will say so in the video.
Other materials I use are in random order: 5, 10 and 40mm brushes, palette knives, acrylics medium, Ecoline liquid watercolor, Lyra color pencils, Lyra soft pastels, oil pastels, Stabilo color pencils, paper palette pad and basic masking tape. I also use household items like a permanent marker, scrub sponge, scissors, paper towel, and so on.

Looks to be pretty gorgeous over there from the bike ride. Looks like Imi is exploring all the possibilities with his work. I like that his work is so colorful. Thanks for spotlighting it.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Culture Fan. It's lovely over here (between the showers). I especially like his venture into 3D, with the aluminum tubes. But there's more to show, perhaps in a later video. Have a good day, Albert

Thanks Albert! ❤️

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Franca.

[@otmarkeller4156]

du begeisterst mich immer wieder, wie du auf die Arbeiten von Künstlern eingehen kannst und sie interpretierst. Und durch deine eigenen Arbeiten zeigst du uns sogar die einzelnen Schritte von der Idee bis zu einem abschließenden Ergebnis. Das ist eine großartige Kunst, die du beherrschst. Du schaffst es nämlich immer wieder, mich und sicher auch andere zu motivieren, selbst aktiv zu werden.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Otmar. Good to know. It's also my aim to show step by step to make it repeatable by you and others. It's an intriguing artist. Enjoy creating, Albert
