I’ve been thinking a lot about how much certainty we’re expected to show as artists — especially online, where it can feel like everyone else has a plan and knows exactly what they’re doing. This session is the opposite of that. I come into the studio without a plan, work through collage and paint, follow what’s catching my eye, and let the pieces slowly find their way. Some move forward, some don’t, and that’s all part of it.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, unsure, or like you’re supposed to know more by now, this is a chance to watch what it actually looks like to keep going anyway.
🎨 The Raw Process is my new watch-me-paint series where you get the full experience—every mark, every layer, every experiment, and even the mistakes that lead somewhere surprising. No polish, no perfection—just the real, unscripted flow of creating art.
