Almost finished listening. A lot to consider, but overall I’m greatly encouraged. I’ve painted over some of my best work and thought, why? I ruined them. Hearing that Scott has done this too made me feel a little better about it.
Loved this. 10 mins in and I'd learned something. I played rugby till I was 43 and miss it but I get the sporting critique and camoraderie bit too. As an artist myself , one can let the natural process isolate you too much. Thats why I enjoy these podcasts while I'm knee deep in a painting or sculptude. Thanks from Wales
Painters search for the musical balance of colors, composition, frame, Space, etc, when musicians paint pictures with notes, rythms, etc. Rick Wakeman explained that really well. When he plays, he sees a picture, a painting, and he sees himself painting it, creating it, and from imaginining his painting, he hears one or two seconds in advance the music what he will play next. That strange phenomenon interested him a lot.
I appreciate your channel. You can never learn to much about how to create art. For me rules do not work but I can rely on my instincts. We all have different instincts (or perceptions) so I try to use my instincts. Makes us all unique.
The best hour I spent today! Personable, fun, informative and relaxed…such a great format and I really enjoyed hanging out with you two. Scott is one of my favorite living painters. Thanks for this Carl and Scott.
Great interview Carl. Looking forward to seeing the Adventure of Painting site develop. I also placed an order for the book written by William Reese. Always looking to increase my wisdom, understanding, and my knowledge.
I found that interesting. I struggle most with the mid tones and find that my range of values is too extreme on either end. I may lose the unity of the whole that way. It could be that small studies could help that instead of going bang into the desired end work. Hmmm. The notion of painting the middle and working out the sky after makes sense.
Great conversation! I think the "Golden Ratio" has a great deal of validity and the rule of thirds, when creating a good composition! I wish could have caught this live.
You are right… there is much value in rule of thirds. I didn’t mean to imply there is no value in them. I do believe there’s much more to design and composition than the rule of thirds. It’s a great guide, but we don’t need to be limited by it. Thank you so much for watching!
PS: I love the group "The Civil Wars", unfortunately they broke up to pursue separate careers. Good as a duet, not sure how they would be as separate vocals though.
Hi Carl, This is one of the best interviews of a painter I have seen in a while. So pleasant and non-commercial, really nice not to have someone hustling their own agenda using artists as a tool to reach their audience. This is a real interview, and I really appreciate your approach. EdP
I loved this interview. Very very nice and you do very well as an interviewer. My only gripe would be not to judge those of us who don't love to read. There are millions upon millions of hours of documentaries and audio lessons out there that many of us consume voraciously. Why? Because we're curious.
Bach I understand that mathematicians like, I am not a mathematician but if they had drawn pictures of the mathematics I might have done better. I did the Famous Artists coarse at 14 they told me to stick to my pen and ink it was my forte, they were not discussing color values. Years later I studied with Sergei Bongart and he taught me how to see color and values by having me paint in black and white until I until I understood value. You Do Some great pictures Scott!
I was disappointed to hear you say that you find people who don't read don't have a sense of curiousity. I listen to - watch your podcasts because I am curious. Google and youtube and podcasts have grown because people are curious. When I watch/listen to something, it is because I am doing something that does not engage my mind much so my mind can pick up info from what I see/hear. I love your work. Thank you
Awards are really almost random- like showing horses - one day you have a bad performance and you win championships the next time you have a perfect performance and you get nothing. One persons face opinion at one time. Participate for joy.

I'm glad you enjoyed the podcast and learned something in the process. Thank you so much for letting me know!
Thank you! I came out of his workshop realizing how much I needed to learn but what a great experience!
I discovered during the pandemic that nature journaling really helped encourage curiosity and close observation of shapes colors movement, etc.
Inspiring, validating, and intriguing - every time! Thanks Scott and thank you for this fine channel.

I appreciate the Rick Wakeman reference and his experience… he is one of my favorites.

That’s a Great course taking it now,
Rad to hear he's also a seahawks fan
For Bill Reese’s book, is it “the painters process” or “William F. Reese?”
"The Painter's Process"
