Good painter attacks his painting. Has to look like life. Art is not truth , a lie to see the truth. In your art take big brush strokes . It's all work in progress.
Life is work in progress.
Joy of doing the work is art , not from torment. Don't show torment, just what are we, where are we going. Look on forms of vases. Full of symbolism down to sculptures, paintings, from life , not street gestures. Each one has an attitude, figures, essence of the human figure, not a picture in bronze.
