Why do certain paintings linger in our minds long after we’ve seen them - while others disappear almost immediately? In this reflective video, I share my experience of visiting a contemporary art fair and what standing in front of other artists’ work revealed about focus, courage, and personal voice. I talk about: – what we learn from work we connect with. – what we learn from work we don’t. – why blandness is a greater risk than being disliked. – and how simplifying and narrowing our focus can actually bring more depth to our painting. This isn’t a review of the art fair, and it’s not about trends or techniques. It’s a quiet reflection on what happens when we deliberately expose ourselves to serious work - and how that exposure can clarify what matters in our own studio practice. If you’re a painter navigating questions of direction, confidence, or personal style, I hope this offers you something to carry back into your own work. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music: Musing Under Moonlight Composer: Brombaer Hear more music by Brombaer here: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6YfaS...
