November Adventures 1, 2, 3 / November 13, 2023

November Adventures 1, 2, 3

Recent musings from artist Louise FletcherI decided that artists can be put into two categories—and that’s daft to begin with, we know! … but we could think about people as completers or adventurers in the way that they approach their art.

… For the completer, the finished product is the objective of being a painter. For the adventurer, a finished painting is a by-product of the reason for existing, and the reason for existing is to have adventures … in this case, getting some paint and brushes and doing adventurous things.

Enlargements of three of the by-products of my November adventures from the past week, with gratitude to Louise:
