Once the kernel of an idea takes root, the process of painting becomes soothing magic.

ACRYLICS

 

As an intuitive artist I must feel to work. Usually, there is a kernel of an idea or a paint colour that entices and I begin in earnest. The brush and the movements, together with the colours and the flowing medium seep into me and my mind quits chattering. All gets quiet and the evolution begins. Then the tough parts break into the flow, and I begin second guessing and I make deals with the piece to make my work easy. It never truly remains in the easy part, just like living life. There are areas we complicate more than we need to, and areas we don’t believe we’ve experienced or are equipped for. Eventually, if we trust and let go, and start having fun again, something happens. The ease comes back and that which we found elusive appears. The circle closes. The creation that begged to be birthed, does emerge, and all is well.
