Painting is hard, but the suffering part is optional. Why is it that when things are hard, we pile on extra layers of difficulty? When we are not aware of our thoughts, we don't notice how much harder we make it on ourselves when we think "this painting isn't working" or "I just don't know how to paint (fill in the blank)" In this episode I show you how painters use their very human brains for self sabotage AND I offer alternative perspectives so that you can practice on your own.Do you spend more time thinking about making art than actually making it? Start things you never finish? Make work and then stack it against the wall, facing inward, so you don't have to look at it?If any of that sounds familiar, I'd love to chat.Click here: savvypainter.com/survey to tell me what's going on.
