Turn off your mind and turn on your SOUL; for there isn’t anything more powerful than a SOUL filled with FAITH! Something I talk about as being the most important in my painting process is not letting fear stop me from experimenting or trying something and allow the painting to unfold as it will instead of trying to control it.
