How I know what to do next in my art

Today I thought I
would talk about how I figure
out what to do next in my art.
Of course, every painting is different.
However, the thought process,
at least for me, is the same.
And that is what I want to share
with you today.
Have a look here as I talk about
three paintings I am working on in the studio.
It all comes down to whether you have
too much or too little of what you love.
Of course, sometimes the challenge is
merely in figuring out what that is.
It is all about discernment, learning
to be not attached to what you love. It is
also necessary to understand that just
because you like a particular part of
your art, that doesn’t mean it is right for the
the painting you are making.
I hope seeing how I do this is helpful.
I am curious,
How do you approach your art’s next steps?
Let us know in the comments.
Hope your time in the studio today
is productive and fun,
Nicholas

Hi Chris, love your art philosophies. I think you are holding back massively in these paintings. This vlog is 4 yrs s you are so more expressive and unafraid to use colour now. I dare you to put a blind fold over your eyes and use a piece of soft black charcoal and draw from your gut. Play some music that moves you to dance or sing. The end result is not forvyou to worry about. The process is the journey...is the most important part of being in the moment. Changes can always be covered.❤ Jo.😊

I am very new to art and particularly acrylics. I thought the way I was creating my art was a bit hit and miss - that I was doing it wrong. Then I saw your you tube channel and watched you having fun whilst creating your art. Thank you for sharing. Obviously I don't have your knowledge or skill level - I just love slapping on paint - until I find the shapes and colours which bring me real joy. I'll continue to follow you and learn as I go. Take care.

@ Linda Howe One thing I love about the way Nick and his CVP “graduate” Louise Fletcher teach art is that there’s no such thing as doing it “wrong.”

You have a gentle, open commentary that invites reflection and comment. You have a fabulous painting style that works well for you. I love your contrast of messy (mushy) edges and straight, sharp edges among many other aspects of your work. I found myself wincing a little watching you use the straight edge to create a sharp edge. I tend to use soft, more rounded edges. This inspired me to consider why.

i have learned a lot watching this video. eliminating what doesn't work and working on what does is having experience to recognise it. not always so evident for me. i suppose it's a question of falling down and getting up. some times i long to have someone to guide me.

I like the idea of knowing that you will go too far and then have to pull back. Which makes sense, bc how do you know where the edge is until you go too far.

Greetings Nicholas, I'm back, had a blank spot for about three months while I concentrated on getting my website written and laid out with the web designer. Felt really isolated and cut off from my stream of consciousness that I normally work in every day, while I produce work.Found it hard to reactivate it. This is a really great video you have done here and it actually addresses the impasse from an artist's point of view. Found it very reflective and helpful. Thank you, wishing you continued success. Brian.

I am so used to work in order to illustrate a story and for this I get to go in myself and for some reason this is so difficult for me But your teaching is so good, thank you
