After studying the works of abstract artist Kandinsky, you will be creating your own Kandinsky inspired abstract photograph.    http://cvhsphotography.com/abstract-artist-kandinsky/

You will need:

  • Water
  • Liquid Soap
  • Oil
  • Wisk or straw
  • Tablet/Cellphone
  • Clear container
  • Two objects to hold the container

Step 1:  Cell Phone/Tablet

  • Search for “colorful wallpaper” images
  • Make sure they have lots of colors and patterns
Step 2:
  • Get a clear glass container or bowl
  • Place the glass container on two steady objects
  • Add water to the container so that it 1/4 the way full
  • Place the screen under the water
  • Put in a couple drops of oil  (you will be doing the same thing with the liquid soap).
  • Mix it around with a spoon or blow gentle on the bubbles with a straw.

Step 3:

  • Zoom in and take a photo.
  • If you don’t like the way the circles look you can mix them up again

Step 4:

Photoshop

  • Edit your photograph to make the colors pop
  • Edit to clean up the image
  • Crop so you can only see the circles/water/color
