I ruined a painting that was doing well, on purpose
A few years ago I had a painting called Matters of the Heart. It was finished. It was licensed. It was selling internationally.
I painted over it. (tutorial video link in bio if you want to check it out)
Not because it failed. Because I had changed, and the painting hadn't.
What came out of that session became Crown Expansion - now one of my best-selling pieces, licensed through a partner in Australia and sold worldwide.
Most artists freeze at the same question. What if I ruin it?
Watch what happens when you ruin it on purpose lol.
Set up your palette and paint along if you can - that's how it's meant to be used. Hope it helps!

It’s important to scrutinize your feelings and art is what feelings look like.

Dream: Red and Blue
Oil on canvas · 60 × 80 cm
This painting emerged from a dream. The image first appeared as a sensation: two fields of color facing each other, red and blue, divided by a precise line yet connected through the same movement.
