Abstract art, for me, almost always had a sense of pointlessness hidden with inside it's interpretation. I know that if any modernist art critic herd me say this I would probably be stoned to death if it wasn't for the luxury of freedom of speech. Abstract art just had such an incompetent vibe. That used to be my mindset about this unique form of art until I recently tried it for the first time. From an artists experience I can now say, with the utmost certainty that I have found new respect for artist of abstraction. Abstract art requires a skill that is in my opinion the hardest artistic technique to acquire.

Utmost respect to all abstract artists.
