Do You Let Your Art Talk to You?! Artist Vlog 55

In this week's artist vlog, I'm sharing how my painting finally turned out, along with some thoughts on how I let my artwork talk to me. Without sounding too crazy, the more I listen, the more the artwork tells me what to do. Let me know if you find this idea helpful or not!
In the video I also share my collage sketchbook. I'm a mixed media artist, so mixing collage with drawing and painting and printmaking is an important part of my art practice!

Love the finished piece AND the use of the journal! I've been known to stare a piece down and keep asking, "What do you want?" 🤣

[@suzishapiro9867]

Like this piece. I have always liked your explorations. These are becoming more sophisticated in many ways. Always good to see artists growing.

Thank you for this Julie Love this idea

Great Vlog, I have learned over the years that I resist being intuitive with my art and I like the idea of letting it talk to me and not just forcing things. I have become lots more playful with my art, which is awesome, but I still struggle sometimes with when a piece needs more or if it is finished. Maybe I need to listen more? Thanks for sharing this part of your process!

Very fun! I talk to podcasts and/or the news a lot lately, maybe I'm drowning out the quieter voice of my art? Thanks for sharing

Matte/dead flat is my favorite finish. :D Just sprayed a bunch of SNC stickers with dead flat poly.

Great content!

And so where does intentionality fit with this? I feel like I’m pursuing transcendence but I only ever trip over it by accident!

[@jerigale]

I would worry if my art STOPPED speaking to me!
