Lets start off with a personal bio.
I've been drawing abstracts sense middle school. I started drawing simple abstracts in those tiny notebook pads. Then I started drawing bigger abstract, still on notebook paper, and coloring them in with different color pens. This was before the advent of gel pens so the colors were limited. They were very dark. Mostly black green and red. I tried color pencils, but I didn't like them as well as the pens because they didn't produce as opaque and dark colors.
I'm sure you are wondering why I chose reguler pen as my medium, as well as notebook paper. Well first of all I liked that I could control the pens well. I paint some now but them I hated it because I could not control the brush. I have bad hand eye coordination due to a brain tumor at age 3. As for the notebook paper. I didn't know of any other type of paper to draw on but newsprint. That was all I was ever given in school to draw on. I am hypersenstive to many things in my envroment and newsprint made me itch.
My abstracts futher advanced when a kid in one of my classes in middle school asked me if all I drew was squares and circles and checkerboard patterns. It was then that the crazy fluidness of my current artwork was born. With the advent of gel pens, my abstracts became more colorful and brignt. With gel pens I could layer textures over solid colors.
It was not untill college and art school that I graduated to the wide aray of art paper, fine tiped artist pens, and brush tip markers. Now armed with a scaner, light box, and Photoshop and Illustrator the posablities are endless. What was once a nerves habit had become a beautiful passionate God given talent.

Abstract Art
Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world.Rudolph Arnheim, Visual Thinking Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality. The arts of cultures other than the European had become accessible and showed alternative ways of describing visual experience to the artist. By the end of the 19th century many artists felt a need to create a new kind of art which would encompass the fundamental changes taking place in technology, science and philosophy. The sources from which individual artists drew their theoretical arguments were diverse, and reflected the social and intellectual preoccupations in all areas of Western culture at that time. Mel Gooding, Abstract Art, Tate Publishing, London, 2000
Abstract art, nonobjective art, and nonrepresentational art, are loosely related terms. They are of similar, although perhaps not identical meaning.
Abstraction indicates a departure from reality in depiction of imagery in art. This departure from accurate representation can be only slight, or it can be partial, or it can be complete. Abstraction exists along a continuum. Even art that aims for verisimilitude of the highest degree can be said to be abstract, at least theoretically, since perfect representation is likely to be exceedingly elusive. Artwork which takes liberties, altering for instance color and form in ways that are conspicuous, can be said to be partially abstract. Total abstraction bears no trace of any reference to anything recognizable. In geometric abstraction, for instance, one is unlikely to find references to naturalistic entities. Figurative art and total abstraction are almost mutually exclusive. But figurative and representational (or realistic) art often contains partial abstraction.
Both Geometric abstraction and Lyrical Abstraction are often totally abstract. Among the very numerous art movements that embody partial abstraction would be for instance fauvism in which color is conspicuously and deliberately altered vis-a-vis reality, and cubism, which blatantly alters the forms of the real life entities depicted.Abstract Art -- What Is Abstract Art or Abstract Painting, retrieved January 7, 2009Themes in American Art -- Abstraction, retrieved January 7, 2009
