In my abstract composition, the emphasis on color, form, shapes, and textures creates a dynamic and engaging visual experience. Here's a deeper exploration of each element:

Color

  • Vibrant Palette: You may use a rich and diverse range of colors to convey different emotions and moods. Each color choice could be intentional, reflecting the essence of the subject or the atmosphere you wish to create.
  • Contrasts and Harmonies: By contrasting bold and subtle hues, you can guide the viewer's eye through the composition, creating focal points and areas of interest. Harmonious color combinations might evoke a sense of balance and unity.
  • Emotional Impact: Colors have the power to evoke feelings and responses. Warm colors like reds, oranges, and yellows might evoke energy and warmth, while cool colors like blues and greens could bring about calmness and serenity.

Form

  • Geometric and Organic Shapes: Your composition might include a mix of geometric shapes (squares, circles, triangles) and organic forms (irregular, free-flowing shapes). This interplay can create a sense of movement and fluidity.
  • Structural Elements: Forms can also represent architectural or natural elements, abstracted to their essential shapes. This abstraction allows viewers to interpret and find their own meaning in the work.

Shapes

  • Complexity and Simplicity: The variety of shapes in your work, from simple lines to intricate patterns, can add layers of complexity. Each shape contributes to the overall structure and rhythm of the composition.
  • Symbolic Meaning: Shapes can carry symbolic meanings or references. For example, circles might represent unity or wholeness, while sharp angles might convey tension or dynamism.

Textures

  • Tactile Quality: The use of textures, particularly through techniques like impasto, can give the painting a tactile quality. The physicality of thick paint applied with a palette knife or other tools creates a three-dimensional effect.
  • Visual Interest: Textures add depth and visual interest, engaging viewers on a sensory level. Smooth, glossy surfaces can contrast with rough, rugged areas, creating a rich and varied surface.
  • Expressive Marks: The textures can also reflect your expressive gestures and marks, revealing the process and emotion behind each stroke. This can add a layer of authenticity and personal connection to the work.

Integration

  • Unified Composition: By integrating color, form, shapes, and textures, you create a cohesive and unified composition. Each element complements and enhances the others, contributing to the overall aesthetic and impact of the artwork.
  • Abstract Interpretation: The abstract nature of the composition allows for open interpretation, inviting viewers to engage with the piece on a personal level. They can find their own stories, emotions, and connections within the abstract forms and textures.

In summary, your focus on these elements in your abstract composition creates a multi-dimensional, emotionally rich, and visually stimulating artwork. This approach not only showcases your technical skills but also your ability to convey deeper meanings and feelings through abstraction.

Anand Manchiraju, Abstract-2
India  • 1947

Presentation

I was born in Eluru, AP, India. Since childhood, I used to observe my father Sri M.S.
Murthy, while he was painting and when he finished his work, I used to clean his brushes.
Often, I used same brushes to come up with my own art. I followed my passion for art and
developed my unique style. In a career spanning more than 50 plus years as a professional artist
and have done over 3000 artwork on various subject matter such as landscapes, portraits, still
life, nudes, animals, travel, and botanicals, on different media such as oils on canvas, acrylic
on canvas, water colors on paper, etc. 

I studied photography in the JNTU Government College of Fine Arts and Architecture,
Hyderabad and furthering my education by taking Color Photo Technology at the Indian
Institute of Remote Sensing, Dehradun. Upon graduation, I joined Indian Drugs and
Pharmaceuticals Limited, Rishikesh Uttaranchal, as Artist and Photographer. I have also been
serving as the President of Andhra Academy of Arts, Vijayawada for three decades for the
cause and propagation of art. 

Living close to Himalayan mountains I got inspired by the splendours of nature and
Ganga river. As a result, nature is often the centerpiece of my work. My sense of the personal,
cultural and world view can be seen in my painting on Indian Tribes and Tribal Dances, Gods
such as Siva, Krishna, Ganesha, Buddha, Saints, etc. Using photography skills and my innate
innovativeness, I have extensively experimented using photo chemicals on bromide and
painting on used X-ray film after treating them. I am one of the very few in the world to do
artwork in this medium. In recent past, I have travelled around the world visiting my children.
Hence city abstracts have also become a recurrent theme. 

My work has been exhibited in many prestigious galleries in India. My first exhibition
was in the Raj Bhawan, Hyderabad in the year 1968. Since then, I have exhibited my work at
Jehangir Art Gallery (Mumbai), Nehru Centre (Mumbai), Bajaj Art Gallery (Mumbai), Lalit
Kala Academy (New Delhi), India International Center (New Delhi), Triveni Art Gallery (New
Delhi), Academy of Fine Art (Kolkatta), Lalit Kala Academy (Chennai), Muse Art gallery
(Hyderabad), State Gallery of Fine Arts (Hyderabad). I have received several state and national
level awards. These exhibitions received critical applause from the press & T.V media as well
as enthusiastic response from the art lovers. My artwork is in private collections and galleries
around the world. 

More recently, I have also participated and exhibited in several international juried
exhibitions both online and offline such as Studio Montclair NJ; Fusion Art, Palm Springs, CA;
Art impact International; Awesome Art Inc; Youth for Human Rights, Washington DC;
Artivita Online Art; Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery; The Contemporary Art Gallery
Online; Sacramento Fine Arts Center, Carmichael, CA ; Chico Art Center, Chico, CA, and
many others. 

When I reflect upon my long association with art, I find that the creative process is just
as intriguing and rewarding as the final outcome of my projects. This desire to create has always
been strong even when others have tried to dissuade me. The internal push to create has given
me an appreciation for the process of exploration, patience and the beauty of art. I believe this
creative and explorative journey has become about freedom to create and the freedom to
express myself.
