Part of art-making is finding order in the chaos of ideas. Which images should I select for this new year? I always find the process exciting yet exhausting as I categorize images into piles of "winners", "losers", or "try again next year". I fear that I will misfile, overlook, or trash a really good idea. In the reality show of my studio, I have to keep the inner critics from too quickly eliminating a contestant, yet I rely on them to help me whittle the images down to a realistic number. Somehow, order must prevail over chaos. Idea auditions end this week. Next week production begins in the colored pencil and painting studios. |
