In this episode of Art2Life, I’ll walk you through the three stages of creating powerful art.

I attended the free workshop and have watched many podcast episodes and have experienced a shift that brought me to tears. I painted an abstract horse that truly painted itself. I can't explain it any other way. The feeling I have when I look at it has altered me. Like I'm looking at my soul ❤
Your post gives me hope. I cry watching this podcast because I want so badly to feel the freedom...the shift. I will perservere and hope for the miracle you describe above....thanks:)
Oh gosh! So happy for you Elizabeth. I took the free course as well and am finding it transformational and emotional, too! Congrats on your horse and your art.
I'm loving the process ❤
The hard part.....oh man, it is all hard for me . I cannot seem to open the damn door....to anything....especially not to me. I will keep watching and listening, and learning....and begin slapping some paint on paper...with reckless abandon...because, I don't know how else to begin. Thanks coach:)
I listened to this twice because there is so much wisdom in Nick’s explanation of doing art. Thanks Nick for articulating what I feel.
I did go to the free workshop and I do miss everyone and the community. I am at a cross road in myself and my art journey life and career. I have always given myself to others and now at 58 trying to find me in my heart mind and soul as well as my art. You are an inspiration and soo positive and so happy to have met you ❤❤❤
Thank You Nicholas. What a gift! This was honestly the most profound explanation of the purpose and process of true art that I have ever encountered. If practiced with this kind of consciousness and intention art will change the world and you are making a major contribution with your teaching.
This is why I've been following your channel and your free workshops since 2020.
I love the way you take my perspective higher.
Thank you so much.
I’m now starting my second round of CVP, and I feel like I’m starting to get it. As I paint, I’m noticing what it is that lights me up. i’m having a silent conversation with myself and it’s very exciting! I can feel a shift in my art and how i respond to what i’m doing - more discernment and less judgment. The critic has the day off! Thank you, Nick!
I had absolutely no idea that there was an artist hiding inside me, until 2019, when I started to draw a little, and then began some watercolor painting. My home is now filled, and I mean filled, with lots of my art. I have painted everything from horses, dogs, cats, elephants, orang utan, zebra, lion, tiger, chimpanzee, giraffe, donkeys, abstract art, and even some portraits. I found my passion. What a joy it is to make art. I love it. Anyone who reads this, never be shy to pick up a pencil or a paintbrush. You won't believe what joy it will bring you. Nicholas, thank you for your videos. I love to watch them.
I feel it takes a leap of courage to truly embrace this approach to our personal art. Thank you for challenging me in this way. I continue to hear your words of wisdom in my heart as I enjoy the struggle. Whatever you can share with us going forward, is very much appreciated.
Enjoying the struggle is everything, isn't it. I'm with you on that!
'When you are ready, the teacher appears...' and here you are Nicholas Wilton. It's uncanny to me how your words in this 128 video are words that have been in my head for years. I have had a yearning to be able to express myself through color, paint and texture. I could tell when I first heard one of your videos that you were the first person with whom I might one day achieve that. Now, hearing you talk about the fear and the work that one goes through to be able to listen to my inner knowing and translate that into paint and collage brings a thrill of excitement that I know you and your students have experienced. I am looking forward to next year and your next workshop...HOORAY!
I loved attending your free workshop and feel so grateful for the many ways it is helping me to open up in my art. Thank you for all that you share in your podcasts and teachings and hopefully being able to attend CVP will become a reality in my future🙏🧡
I love, love, loved this episode and it really hit home. I recently noticed that all the pieces of art that sell fast or that gets the most compliments are the pieces I made when I was full of emotion. Sometimes I was sad, sometimes over-the-top happy- no matter- viewers can tell and it just blows my mind. I wrote down your three principles and look forward to learning more from you. Thank you, sir!
That was intense Nick! I am feeling it…
Did CVP last year. Taking this year to breathe it in. Art in Life is what it is all about. Always learning, growing, and evolving. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I did take the free classes and trying to stay connected! I always reap value from each & every video! ❤❤❤
Wow, this was brilliant Nick. Thank you 🤓
There is a lot to digest here! I'm feeling a little loopy!
So true, true, true.
Oh wow! This podcast really hits home. Thank you Nick for these unique insights, bouts of wisdom, spirituality and more.
I will listen to this one again as there is so much in this podcast that brings light and understanding of my journey. Thank you so much❤
Thankyou for being such a great mentor on this journey, I am starting to explore more of who I am as an artist and this podcast is what I needed today. I would like my art to draw awareness to people like myself who suffer from narcolepsy ( let everyone who doesn't step into our world through my art) and your words today about your art becoming you and you your art is spot on. Thanks ❤🎨
Again I want to say thanks for your teachings Nicolas. I love your approach. Greetings from the Netherlands ❤
One of the best podcasts ever! I’ve been following you for 3 years and working on myself and art! Thank you. Excited about your new and improved iteration. You embody such a zest for life.
Thank you!!!!!
You always reinforce this belief to make authentic art you must become aware of being authentic! Thank you !
Great to listen to this Nick, and to paint along with you! Your videos and free workshops have been invaluable. I now wake up and go to sleep thinking about art: it's become an obsession, in a good way.
I attended the free workshop and am grateful for what I learned. This podcast has encouraged me to think more deeply about where I put my energy and where I’d be better off putting it! Thanks.
Your teaching resonates so much more with me than a lot of spiritual teachings out there. It does impact my life and art strongly, thank you ❤
Dear Nick, I am following you for a long time. And I am so happy, when I hear you talk and see you work! I learned and learn a lot from you. You talk the language I love. Art and Life, they are of the same kind. And I am jealous of you, you seem to have a lot of energy ! I hope, you can go on and on, with your inspiring classes.
Now I see your face being tired! Don’t forget to take breaks!😴😴
Nick YOU literally light me up!!! I am resonating with what you are saying and doing! I am shifting and feeling SO ALIVE!! Mahalo, thank you!🌺
I love this podcast so much ! This my 3rd time listening to it and I'm going to continue until it sinks in !! Thanks Nic
Love your positive energy and how you encourage people to be courageous to take risks and try the hard things - and we can see how you are doing this yourself with the next stage of filming your podcasts! How exciting! I can feel the energy- so grateful for your teaching in CVP and here and happy to be in the three step process with such a wonderful community- I feel like after 56 years of life I have found my “tribe” 🎉
Thank you Nicholas for explaining becoming your ART so well 🎨 😀
Nick! I have listened to your podcast from the very beginning. This last one absolutely hit it out of the ballpark. A subject that so few ever touch upon and yet completely essential. Thank you!
At 16:40 this absolutely wonderful. And for sure, the whole video. Than you so much. I do offen not have the technique or the knowledge to make things better.....
So clear 🎉and beautiful Nic. Thank you. I’m loving CVP.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge in all aspects of making art and the connection to life! You are so uplifting! priceless! ❤️
I always draw an infinity symbol, in fact, I always put it under my signature.
My initials also make the infinity symbol in cursive.
The symbol has been with me for as long as I remember too.
Thanks Nick. You are a true inspiration and keeping it real. I can't wait until the new podcasts.
Did the free workshop and now in the Studio and loving the community - so much help and support. However, THIS podcast was really unbelievable, Nic. You have given us a gift - to fully get it all will have to listen a few more times! But thank you !
From your workshop talks Nicholas, I believe I have learned one thing about myself. I judge what I paint - if good or bad by comparing with others work I like and not my own intuition. I may have made a real step forward.
Thanks for you podcast is very inspiring for me this world needs more people like you love your art .
I really needed to hear this. It was like hearing a piece of something I knew deep down but hadn't realized. Wishing I lived closer so I could take advantage of any live workshops, but I"ll try to do better about listening to podcasts and the free workshop. I appreciate your desire to spread the message of authenticity and how to find that...that's exactly what I'm searching for but don't know quite how to find it. My art was put on hold for 45 years but I just retired and now I"m trying (with difficulty) to find my voice again. If I'm being honest, the thing that is my spark is having a message to my work, not just creating an aesthetic, but creating something that has a perceivable point of view or statement. Look forward to learning more from you.
OMG! This was prophetically beautiful. We are beautiful art in the making. Spoken truth. 😊
Congratulations on 128 episodes! I’m just LOVING CVP 2024 (first time) and look forward to your new podcasts!
Thank you so much, Nick. I'm currently in the programme and was listening to artsy things while I experiment with the panels. First attempt felt and looked terrible. 2nd attempt starting to loosen and feel better. Third attempt while listening to this episode - I am FREE! It feels soooo great. Thank you thank you. You are sharing something incredible. Get in motion and keep going. (Betsy S)
Thank you so much for this podcast 🙏🏽
I was in the free workshops and it was amazing. Love the symbol of infinity, so much energy, no beginning and no ending. I love painting circles (and dots) I love the shapes, the energy, the flow and it’s also no beginning and no ending.
Yes, I want to live thur my work again Love and gratitude 🌞💫🌞💜
Really enjoyed the free workshops Nick, thank you! This podcast is great, and so true. Also loving the new filming format. Thank you 🙂
Looking forward to the new and improved podcast. Thank you Nick!
Thanks Nick. Yes, I took your taster free week and am currently loving learning with you on CVP. I do understand and get what you are talking about in this podcast and now really want to see it happening in my art. I had never thought clearly about the obvious connections before but it absolutely makes sense and I love the idea of the feedback loop. I'm so excited to be part of this community and experience looping da loop - Ruth UK 😅
This is my favorite podcast episode. Thank you!!!❤
Thanks so much for this video Nick!! I’m currently taking the CVP class and was just feeling yesterday how hard working with acrylics is compared to WC, which I’ve been working in for years. It’s like learning to paint all over again. You are helping me feel encouraged keep on keeping on!
Thank you as always Nick, for your powerful information.
You are such a good teacher. Thanks for sharing this.
wonderful, thanks for sharing your community, art and working out how to be a better at what you do.
beautifully spoken Nick. very inspiring!
I loved your free workshops d love you way of art. Good luck with this new filming.
I know what I love, and that's what I try to do. I can see it is very difficult. I have a new respect for this kind of art. I was involved i n music and writing, but never painting. Really hard to master. I don't feel in control of my life at all, and I like learning the style of art I love because I CAN control THAT. The rest of my life, not so much. So I want to be in control of something, obsessed with something, and painting is it. no one can stop me from doing it. No one can destroy or control it as long as it is with me. it is mine, mine to master, mine to mess up, mine to do whatever I want with it while it is in my control, i may be stopped from selling the paintings, posting the paintings online or whatever, but only i decide whether I create it or not.
Thank you Nic…🙂
just sitting up late listening to you !
The thing is most people lead boring, uninspiring, conventional routinized lives, how does that lead to AMAZING art?
So much wisdom in here. Thank you Nicholas.
I have to leave my cabinet doors and drawers open otherwise the paint sticks and I can't open them. So much for acrylic based paint. :)
Nic, can you please tell me what is the name of that red you use here, this looks to me like a red/orange... also the orange you make is so amazing, I can almost TASTE it!!! Please let me know. Thanks
I don't close cabinets either! It's okay ♾️
How do you stop the pages of your journal sticking together after shutting it Nicholas?.....my acrylic pages stick together :-(
wax paper or glassine or butcher paper sleeves? :)
@@barbsnyder6512 I'm sorry i don't understand what those are or how they would help. Thanks
place wax paper between art pages that are not dry to keep them from sticking together
@@barbsnyder6512 OK thanks....but the pages are dry....it's just that acrylic paint seems somewhat sticky after it's dried if pressed together like in a journal.
I have done many “freeing” paintings, but I keep asking myself where is this leading? Seems like a waste of time or I’m not paying attention to the happenings or what can I gain here. Is this just a mindless scribble? Frustrated.
