In 2023, I struggled with a major art block and creative burnout. I couldn’t get myself to work on my paintings; I hated all of my concepts and projects. Each idea seemed terrible or not good enough to even start.
One day, I decided to let go and experiment with different media completely. In order not to waste another canvas, I took textured paper and threw paint on it. I started building layers with watercolors, then painted on top with oils; I added some oil pastels and glued golden leaves.
I ended up creating one of my favorite pieces to this day. Ever since, once in a while, I come back to „this project” and let myself play with art. Not everything needs to be perfect or deeply thought through with extra messages or meanings.
Tho maybe there is a message here:
HAVE FUN WITH ART 😌
