Making art is a constant reminder that we are not in control of very much. That actually, when we simply let creativity come through, rather than trying to manage it, magic happens. Today I accidentally discovered a new way to work with charcoal - a way that allows me to get all kinds of exciting effects. Not ready to share that yet - but it happened when I got out of my own way and stopped trying to dictate the outcome. Art-making is magic and we are so lucky! | Louise Fletcher - Art

As you may know, I constantly advocate for intuitive painting and for working without a clear goal in mind. This last few weeks have reaffirmed for me why that is so important. Just look how things have shifted day by day, so that I have ended up somewhere I couldn't have imagined at the start. It's so cool to experience this! | Louise Fletcher - Art

Have you struggled to find your style as an artist? If so, this video is for you. I believe we all have a unique voice and we can all make interesting, compelling and unique artwork. But to do it, we need to tap into the deeper parts of ourselves - and most of all, we need to stop looking outwards for the answers. We already have everything we need. | Louise Fletcher - Art

We have this idea that we need certain conditions to paint. More space. More peace. Better materials. But none of it is true. I am on a painting retreat. I have very limited tools, and I’m in a cramped space. There are people all around me and loud music playing. None of it is what I would choose … and yet, I am having real breakthroughs. Sometimes limitations are the very thing we need :) | Louise Fletcher - Art

I’m ‘sizing up’my famous ‘taped squares’ exercise, just to see what happens. This is the first of many I’m sure. Painting isn’t about perfection for me - it’s about exploring and learning. What happens if I … now what if I add something else/ turn it upside down/ paint with my hands … then what if I …? If we could get all the answers on our first try, what would be the point? Do, I’ll do this again with a twist snd then again and again until it stops being interesting. We are so lucky to get to

I am sitting in Genoa airport waiting for a flight home. I may or may not be ill. I am definitely exhausted! I have never spent so much dedicated time on painting … no-one counting on me. No admin. No teaching. No dog walks. It was wonderful. But also truly exhausting. I need a day in bed when I get home! Thanks @art2life_world for a great week x | Louise Fletcher - Art

Yesterday’s painting got a new approach after words of wisdom from @c.s.mcintire and @georginanoeleft. I released so much onto this canvas. I’m not sure I’ll even try to ‘resolve’ it. I’m starting to think that, for me, painting is more about healing than anything. Maybe I’ll just stop when I feel I’ve let go of whatever needed to be released. Maybe that’s enough x | Louise Fletcher - Art
