: Actually, I just realized that technically, my non-representational art is not abstract art at all. Abstraction is based on reality in some manner.

: So, a proper abstract painting would abstractly "say something." It would be symbolic, and thus, representational.

: I wonder what I should call my work?

: I suppose, however, that technically, all artwork is representational to some degree since it is the work of human beings.

: I got a D in my college aesthetics course. Does it show?

: Lol..
