It's funny how words and phrases come to you in bunches.
As if things are being revealed.
Slowing down and paying attention are what we need when this happens.
So it is with me.
Last week I posted on Facebook that I should take time, slow down, paint more loosely.
Of course, as soon as I said so, the reminder to 'hold on loosely' followed me everywhere.
My immediate object was to loosen my hand and try to get some depth to landscapes with shadowed clouds.
Instead of flattening the shapes,
I varied the intensity of color.
While there is no consistency yet,
these little studies are taking me
out of my comfort zone.
Play.
Experimentation.
