what is process painting?

  


process painting is 
an unplanned, unpredictable and surprising experience in paint. 

It is zen-like in its flow

dream-like in the way forms arise and change

life-like as we interpret a form and give it meaning, as we watch the color and water carry us along, toward new forms, new meanings and beyond meaning.

It is a fun, challenging, exciting to witness, fascinating practice.

It is meditation in action.

It is a conscious listening and letting go, in paint.

smooth white paper   
smooth color
smooth brushes

there is no right or wrong way to paint spontaneously.


this playful experience has a way of spilling us deeper into life.

What can it be for you?

how thrilling
to allow yourself such freedom,
such courage to stand before the unknown!

creativity awakens and stretches,
thrilled to be called forth in such an open way, 
into such a safe space as you.

spontaneous painting is a conversation with yourself
in paint.
you are creativity itself.
