How to Paint With More Freedom with Andrea Lopez (Ep.128)

Om avsnittet

Today I’m talking with mixed media artist Andrea Lopez about how she makes room for play, experimentation, and surprise in her painting process.

In the conversation you’ll learn how to balance spontaneity with thoughtful decisions about composition, value, and color. You’ll explore options for when you get stuck in the middle of a painting, why you might want to have several paintings going at once, and how learning to trust your process can help you work with more freedom.

BONUS EPISODE (Patreon)

In today's bonus conversation, mixed media artist Andrea Lopez shares how a 30-day sketchbook challenge completely changed the way she uses her sketchbooks.

We'll talk about giving yourself permission to make pages you don't love, setting up your studio to make experimentation easier, and how your sketchbooks can become a kind of dictionary of your own artistic vocabulary.
