“It’s a rare treat to have an artist you admire share her process and a creation unfold before your eyes. I loved how she spoke about using intuition and demonstrated with drips, splatters, frenetic brushstrokes and scribbles. I’ve watched this while in the midst of painting in my own kitchen studio; and again while looking for inspiration to jump back into painting. Highly recommend for abstract/intuitive artists!”
