7. Tackling the Challenging 'Mid-zone' of a painting

In this episode we reveal how a time-lapse video can bring clarity, clues and mindfulness to the mid-zone of a painting process. I share my feedback on one of Laura’s paintings and my strategies to help her move forward from a ‘thinking’ to ‘feeling’ space. We talk about: · Shifting the goal posts and learning how to loosen up when you’re used to creating more resolved art pieces. · Trusting that the ‘history’ of the canvas will shine through and how to keep going even when you think you’ve stuffed it up. · Finding the clues in your work for future paintings · Using time-lapse video as a tool to gain a fresh perspective on your art.
