Takeaways

1. "If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it's not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That's why it's your path.”  Joseph Campbell
2. Fine art is essentially an exploration. You DON’T know how everything is going to turn out.
3. Art is never easy – you must learn to live with the discomfort.
4. Pay attention to the difference between inspiration (what gets you into the studio) and what your paintings express.
5. People get stuck because they have a plan and stick to it, when sometimes you just need to NOT plan.
6. Notice your defaults and then expand upon them.
