abstract artist
Shapes-and-colors creator
An abstract artist creates art that doesn't attempt to represent external reality.
Rather than depicting recognizable objects or scenes, abstract artists work with shapes, colors, forms, and gestural marks: Kandinsky was among the first abstract artists.
The term covers a wide range of styles, from geometric abstraction to expressionist splashes of color.
