Coalescence

Today's painting is about releasing attachment to the end result and allowing the process of painting to happen. And also, bringing forth something out of my own mind rather than reproducing something from a reference. It's about allowing and getting my left brain out of the way of creating. Letting go of fear of a "failed" painting. It doesn't need to BE anything. It just is.

I suspect that if I did more of this sort of thing as a warm-up before I paint, my painting would be a lot better. I am very right-brained right now. There's plenty of time this month to test this hypothesis, but not today.
