5 minute Free Hand:
I like to call the first abstract art cover page : 5 minute free hand. Put the timer on for 5 minutes and just let your hands go free! Don't worry about anything. It doesn't matter if the shapes are funny or the lines or crooked, just take a deep breathe and go!
Check out this video of the 5 minute Free hand.
Abstract Art Cover Page Idea 2:
If you are not ready to jump into the free hand waters have no fear! Using simple shapes like squares, circles, and lines can be a great way to create abstract art in a more structured way.
- At each corner of the page draw 2 squares one square should be bigger than the other. You can make the squares overlap or have them next to each other.
Acrylotip: Don't forget that the Acrylograph pens are paint markers- you need to wait for them to dry before adding another layer of color. If the paint is still wet the paper can start peeling and can cause fraying on the pen! 
Abstract Art Cover Page Idea 3:
The last abstract art cover page idea is inspired by Dutch abstract artist Piet Mondrian. I'm sure you must have seen some of his art work, Tableau I, 1921. His abstract works uses primary colors, cubes and lines to make simple yet thought provoking art.
- Recreating Tableau I is simple. The basic shapes are squares and rectangles.
Hope these 3 cover page ideas helped inspire you to do listen to whatever art speaks to you. Here's a printable that has an abstract art coloring sheet and an "Art has a voice, let it speak" printable.
