Creating Your Own Abstract Expressionism

Step 1: Gather Materials

Collect various textures, colours, and objects. Think: torn paper, ripped fabric, broken glass, and last week's Chinese food.

Place them in a room. Any room.

Texture Tapestries

This is not a competition.

Emphasize the process over the product.

Make a mess. Break things. Make more messes.

Repeat as necessary.

Or, if you will, Controlled Chaos.
