Thoughts on Painting

Sometimes the hardest part of the creative process is actually starting. In college, one of my professors made us turn in 10 drawings every week. When I first heard that was going to be a requirement of the class, I was kind of freaked out. I mean, 10 drawings a week for 10 weeks is 100 drawings! That seemed like a lot, especially on top of all of my other work. But honestly, it became one of my favorite parts of the week. The drawings didn't have to be perfect or finished masterpieces, but it forced me to sit down and paint and not worry about all the details. Sometimes, even years later, especially when I find myself in a creative rut, I give myself the assignment to create 10 drawings in a day, or a week, and just let go.
