At one time, Mondrian painted realistic landscapes, but as he painted more and more, his style began to change. Eventually, Mondrian’s style consisted of geometric shapes and primary colours. After all, every shape can be created from the basic geometric shapes and every colour can be created from the primaries – red, yellow and blue.
