You misunderstand art and therefor don't belong here unless you figure it out. Abstract can be... anything. You could take a square and call it "dick", because it reminds you of your dick. It's up to the artist.

I think the name fits well.

I know what abstract is, and any artists who creates a piece and names it, does so for the purpose of describing the art piece. The names given to the piece are related to the piece itself in some form.

When it comes to abstract in particular, the name is one of the most important tools that the viewer has for identifying or at least understanding what is occuring.
Without giving a name or obvious hint at what you've done, the viewer is left looking at a colorful canvas. When a name is given, the viewer tries to see why the artist named that piece and so he looks for its purpose. If a name wasn't given, then it is left to the imagination of the person to come up with an opinionated answer at what they see. (Also the basis of the Rorschach tests) (No name? Then you tell me what you are seeing.) Instead of giving insight into the artists mind, you gain insight into the mind of viewer.

Now if you add a name to a piece, you are telling the viewer to search for that. In this case, there's not a trace of anything related to painkillers.

Going back to what i said about the piece being related to the name in some form:
-at least in your example of calling something "Dick", the viewer might recognize the square for being a short and thick dick or they could see a square face with no features of a guy that could be called Dick. Either way, they are given something to look at which they could recognize because of the name.
Edit:
Or like ~Pi-nipple! said, you could draw a dick and call it Ozymandias. It could be either understood as a penis with a name, it could be understood symbolically as meaning that Ozymandias is a dick, or a mixture of that and other things. Point is, its describing something.

Thnx ~Pi-nipple!, you're helping me here =0

i don't see how "Painkiller" name applies to this, and i see no traces of depth.

Based off the colour-scheme, and it's just a name anyway.

Also, I admitted it had fail depth, no need to point that out unless you're gonna give a suggestion on how to fix it.

what were you even trying to do? >_>

its kind of impossible to add depth to this unless you describe it or say what you were trying to accomplish here. And since you named it, that's the automatic description. In this case, it has nothing to do with Painkillers, so tell us what we're supposed to be looking at and we might be able to help.

I called my my little pony tag 'Death and Destruction'. What're you gonna do?

i agree, introducing my little pony to kids can have chaotic results =/

I asked you a question. What're you going to do about it? Be childish and pretend to agree with such an outrageous 'automatic description' or admit that a name is not the description?

read edit

Hey redslothx, do you know what abstract is? Guess not.

Not sloth.

But yeah I know what abstract is.
Either way, abstract pieces have names that resemble the actual art.

what now?

Just because you've seen a few that do have names that resemble the pieces them selves, that doesn't mean that they have to.

When a piece of art is named, the name describe the art.

bye now =0

...

thats art.

I'm more toward V3. It's more appealing to the depth.

Wtf rsx, Why taking that what they say to you? -.- rsx is a better artist then all of you together fuckers. As for the sig, the name makes no sense. You give a sig a name because you can actually see something in it, not because you want to give it a name. also, abstract is nothing. just random crap, though it can look good sometime, this one doesn't. V1 is better btw, calmer what rsx said. kthnx

You don't understand art either, please leave.

If the colors remind the artist about painkillers then he can, by all means, name it "painkillers". There's nothing wrong with that, that's how 99% of abstract artists name their work.
