A new-old painting, started possibly around 2007, and finished in one session with my beautiful painting friends, earlier today!
I was sharing with participants in these open painting sessions that it feels like we're co-creating as we talk and work in union.
I also feel that, despite having had a very solitary practise and having lived in remote places much of my life, nevertheless now I'm gaining enormous benefit from being with others...
Particularly the deep discussions about how the world is unfolding, which help distract the mind from interfering with the painting; I paint in parallel, almost, and find an effortlessness in finishing that is harder to achieve when alone.
Thank you beautiful community!
