Nature has always been one of the favored sources of inspiration for oil painters since oil colors were invented. Objects in nature have born in them an aesthetic beauty from afar, but even more so from a very close up point of view. An organic object, no matter what size, can provide the ultimate inspiration for an oil painting even when just the tiniest portion of it is the focus.
We are exceedingly fortunate to be surrounded by such an inspiring force as nature. The resources for a great abstract painting are all around us. Even if a natural object is chosen completely arbitrarily, or a combination thereof will always prove to open the creative oil painter toward astonishing abstract imagery. So, grab a mushroom, a rock, a pinecone, or even your dog! The potential lying within nature is limitless.
