What she says is interesting but can't be applied to everyone. I am an overthinker and the only way I can make my art not stiff is to go with the flow: not planing, just choosing what to work on and do it, an I would still be more prepared and make more research than most people. So, listening to this kind of thing is interesting, but in the end you have to find what work best for you. Stop trying to do -what you are supposed to be doing- and do what you enjoy the most. Obviously getting out of the confort zone once in a while is powerful, but don't make art a chore.

I'm not currently a painter, but this is rich universal growth advice towards any craft or artform! I'm a filmmaker, and I'm developing my third short in a series I've been working on for a few years. I've been a bit stifled, by all these thoughts and expectations. I think while my goals were starting to feel too lofty, I was also forgetting to play. So much wisdom! Thank you for guiding me back toward the tracks

the talent thing is what caused me to never learn how to draw for the vast majority of my adolescence. i really only started in my late 20s, and learning has been quite slow going because of the ingrained poor self-esteem wrt the art i make. but i only ever started because i only then heard people saying that art wasn't an inborn talent, but a skill one hones (there can be inborn talent, i know) if they want to.

Richard Schmid-s daughter-s work is rich with her Father-s hand. Thank you for calling attention to his hand & style. He is our Family & we lived with his work our whole lives. You have succinctly described the inner self. The approach is Play. Do not critique your work.
Thank you for sharing your vision & skill set-

Now this is the kind of painting I understand! Flat brushes, filberts, loose handling, idealization of color, etc. It can be kept loose or refined to a high degree of realism quite quickly without laboring over the canvas for hours on end using tiny brushes.
