Currently up to the mark making video of Flora Bowley’s Brave Intuitive Painting Process on creativebug. This is all about playing and experimenting with your tools to achieve different marks. The idea is to embrace a curious and playful mindset and allow yourself to freely explore your painting tools.

We are about to start the painting process. We are beginning with a cool layer first. By cool colours she means blues and greens, and not cool variations of reds and oranges etc.

The idea is to apply all the colours onto the canvas using a variety of tools in different ways. The aim is to get a wide range of marks in the initial layers that you can work with in the later layers.

The world: ignites in me, a sense of curiosity. My mind does not settle until it can comprehend, until it understands. For the physical world, creation has always been my enduring method of choice. For the spiritual world, all-encompassing practices like yoga and meditation, a belief in a higher energy, and writing have always been the soothing and balancing tools I have returned to, to re-ground myself. This is my journey of self-expression. Through written words and different forms of art. To my soul, my inner essence.
