THE NEXT CHAPTER (Suggested for Stage Five; Flow)
Susan Melrath saw changes entering her work. She was having different sensibilities, different interests. She was going towards quiet conversations and more muted palettes, which all felt good, but something was still missing. In this very insightful critique, hear Nicholas hone in on how Susan was actually setting the stage for the next chapter in her work.
In this video you will learn:
– Even after we’ve been painting for awhile, we encounter places where we aren’t playing big enough
– As we go further and get more refined in our art, we want to get more out of differences and not just add in differences for the sake of having differences.
– When you’re feeling stuck, try bringing in something new, such as new tools. Something that is very different from what you’re doing now.
– Don’t let the fear of figuring out ‘the next big thing’ hold you back. Experiment, explore, play. That will lead you to the next thing.
– Even though we have instincts about our work, to find more perspective and clarity, it’s very helpful to talk it out with someone else.
