The question I most commonly get asked is what do

The question I most commonly get asked is what do I do when I like a painting and I don’t know where to take it from here? Like it’s just begun, the first two layers are in and I’m feeling the magic yet I feel like it’s not done and I don’t want to “ mess it up“. Example, this painting is for a client and I know she wants botanicals and animals and yet these first few layers floated so freely out of me there’s a precious movement here and rawness that I don’t want to lose. Actually—I know exactly where I’m going to take this painting, but that’s taken years of practice to understand how I visualize and execute.

Here are my suggestions:

1. You can work slow and steady, make little marks with water soluble wax crayons, add a little gold leaf or paint pen. Sometimes small moves can effect the whole painting and be enough.

2. Take space. You need input and a little or big break. When you go back and take a photo of it or have your first glance off it “your first thought is often your best thought.”

3. You need input. Write about ideas and things you’d like for it to feel like, look at inspiring old books, color-ways, patterns and more. What is your intent for this painting?

In between all those three something should emerge that feels right!

Hey artists, entrepreneurs, and independent thinke

Hey artists, entrepreneurs, and independent thinkers! We need to do something about this. Over the last month I’ve noticed more and more of my posts not being shown. It confused me because I felt I was forming an even deeper connection with my community. Then I noticed other artists with either huge or small followings sharing the same thing. The old algorithm needs to come back, this has been a very special community to all creators. Instagram does not need to be like TickTock. The artist always make a space more beautiful —they transform cities, countries, communities. If artists become unsatisfied Instagram won’t be as cool I promise you. We’ll just make a new platform. 〰️💕 Ok #mosseri? #makeinstagraminstagramagain #showpoststoourfollowers ✨#smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #nofiltering #supportartistsoninstagram #supportsmallbusiness #supportmeaningfulbusiness #supportconnection #oldinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artistsupportpost #artistsofinstagram

Evolution of two #paintings! I demo’d on these at the #soulpainting workshop this past weekend. What a treat! Was a joy to have everyone creating together again, some have not painted in over a year. People made a variety of beautiful and authentic work. The connections were real, my heart is full I have a few spaces left in 3 retreats, the others are sold out. Please visit my website to see the dates…💕💕〰️🦌
