The Creative Season of an Artist: Growth (Part 2)

In Part 2 of The Creative Seasons of an Artist, we step into the Growth Season — the stage where things begin to click. This is the season of momentum. Your washes start behaving the way you hoped they would. Composition begins to make more sense. You see improvement — and you feel it. But growth isn’t just about getting better. It’s about developing rhythm. In this episode, we talk about: • What creative momentum really feels like • Why mistakes increase as you grow — and why that’s a good sign • The shift from “Can I paint?” to “What kind of painter am I becoming?” • Avoiding creative overload and too many influences • Recognizing your instincts and artistic preferences • Building strength through repetition The Growth Season is exciting, messy, and expansive. It’s the time when you experiment more boldly, notice color and form everywhere, and begin trusting your eye. This isn’t the season for shrinking. It’s the season for building muscle — creatively and mentally. If you’re feeling energized, curious, and slightly overwhelmed all at once, you may be exactly where you need to be. Growth isn’t linear. But it is powerful. View Online Courses Youtube
