Great post! I was never one to “color in the lines” I think we can appreciate others without copying. It is most annoying to see work you shared listed as another artists original.

Hello David…I looked for you on Facebook just now and couldn’t find you. Next time, say hi on my wall so I can put your face with this comment. Thanks for taking time to read the Wild Horse post. I am glad it taught you something new and important to think about. Also, I am glad my art tips are useful to you! I really appreciate the feedback.

Lori we have been facebook friends for sometime now. But having over 500 friends it’s so hard and virtually impossible to keep up with everyone. I do enjoy viewing and I do comment and click like often on your page and wall we share. And I have always loved and admired your work. Today I recieved your newsletter in my personal email for the first time. WOW! Reading your adventures about the wild horses opened my eyes to somethings I wasn’t even aware of. Thank’s for bringing the sad plight of the American wild horses to my attention. And reading farther into your newsletter I discovered so many helpful tips! Thank you for sharing such vital information on our land, nature and many constructive tips on art and painting. Looking forward to your next newsletter and see on facebook!

Hi Maura-

Good for you…I wish art could always feel like ‘playing’! I try to keep that childlike attitude when I paint. Yes, a consistent body of work is important to your artistic development. Edit it down to the bare essentials and aks yourself, what am I trying to say. That will help.
Good luck and I am glad you enjoyed this post.

Very insightful article, thanks so much! Having only started two years ago, I am still exploring and “playing” as it were. I’ve heard that I need to find a style and stick with it but didn’t want to be fenced in, ya know? Still, NEMO makes great (great!) arguments for why that is necessary. Thanks again.

Hello Georgie-

Artists through the ages have copied each other for learning and inspiration. It is a great exercise which helps your figure out your own style. It is part of the learning process. Just like with anything thing, practice and miles of canvas will help you find your own voice.

Happy painting-
Lori

Great article. I struggle with finding my artistic voice. I’m afraid that I am in a bit of a copycat phase, but I feel that is a phase that many artists have to go through to find their own voice. You’ve given me food for thought. Thank you.
