I feel so much better now, your explanation resonates 110% inside of me. Since childhood I felt "out" and wanted things different. As an "middle-aged" adult I went to a fantastic Art-tutor a few years ago and I'm still going and this awesome artist and warmhearted woman Truida told me to follow my instincts/heart because only then my art will blossom. My husband likes me to paint "beautiful" so he can understand it but inside I revolt. As from now on I will just "let go" and follow my emotions/instincts even if no-one likes it. After all, I'm not a professional but go wild with bottled-up emotions. Thank you for your inspiring video!!
Thank You. I think it helps us to trust life force to flow through us --to be spontaneous etc. And it takes patience and showing-up to recover that level of trust. If I do not fall for fear or pain then body will show the way to work with it little by little. :)
Thank you for this! I like doing art in this manner... Letting it just flow and stopping when it finally "hits me" if that makes any sense. I was so discouraged from others because it "didn't look realistic". This makes me not feel as "crazy" to like doing what I do... 🙂
It's hard for the mind to be un-attached BUT so freeing when we make art! You can also remind yourself: "what's the worst thing that can really happen here?"
Right now I am so furious/unhappy/disgusted that not even your video makes sense to me at all. I've tried to sketch my feelings but it looked like worms vomiting. I feel devestated. But I will try again because a previously shattering feeling had me painting the most emotional and expressive painting ever.
I am wondering if you should even bother looking for any meaning at all... just make contact between paint and canvas. I struggle to describe what I create and listening to this video and someone else's has helped me realise that I can leave others to ascertain a meaning from what I create. I decided not to stress myself out and create and then state what I see. I have no idea on outcomes ... the crazy thing is objective artists would find all this lack of a known goal a bit of a nightmare.. since there is no control and sometimes no end....
I wonder if worms vomiting might be an okay expression? Feelings are weird and don't usually look pretty. Could've been an honest representation of something you were feeling.

I totally agree, well said 🙌

I'm glad you feel supported in following your flow ❤ That's what art is all about for me!
Great explanations.

YES! So glad you found them helpful :)
“Un attached to the result” stained my brain

Outstanding art work dear, keep supporting us 💖
Thank you.. helped a lot😊😇
So glad :)
Will you begin a new studio in NC? I'm interested in learning more, if so. Thank you
No, I'm committed to online now. I like the lower carbon footprint and it allows participants to be with their art instead of leaving it in a studio.

Who is she looking at? Because she is not looking at the camera lens when talking to her online audience.
Interesting.. didn't notice this myself...was paying more attention what was being said.. ho hum...
When you first started I saw a women's body.
It's cool how we can see things in a painting.
