When you just don’t know where to start when it comes to experimenting, try this simple exercise to get some ideas going.
You might be a beginner getting to grips with materials, or a pro who’s found themselves stuck in a habit. Either way, this is an easy way to get back to an explorative mindset and get playing once more.
I often use this process to help me structure my studio sessions when I am not in the middle of a project, and it really helps to keep me exploring.

Thanks Orla. I love these ideas. I’ve been painting and drawing all my life (I’m 62) and still can learn so much from young spring chickens like yourself 😉 your videos are lovely and original. I agree with one of the other comments. So many people copy each other and it gets very samey, samey but not you ❤

Love your enthusiasm and excellent way of sharing your knowledge and thoughts. Two ideas I found fun to do was 1. using a palate knife and 2. painting on greaseproof paper and then turning it over onto the paper/canvas to transfer the paint, you can also make marks with a sharp tool on top before lifting off. Also using a plastic store/credit card to move paint around or make lines is fun. X

Thanks so much! These all sound so fun - I need to give palette knifes a go again! What’s your go to paint when printing/transferring?

You've inspired me😊 I'd like to play with underpainting. Maybe it'll give me interesting edges if the underpainting also has a pattern 🤔💡
