Creative process

My creative process varies from subject to subject. If I am not interested in the subject matter I have a hard time sitting down and working on being creative. This goes with photography, painting, scrap booking, anything hands on. If there is an assignment that I am intrigued by normally I start picturing what I want to do in my head right away, and I normally always stick with my gut feeling. I will also start it right away so that way I have time to change things if my original idea goes wrong. If i am not interested in it, I try as hard as I can to be creative but sometimes it just does not work and I accept it and move on. I do not like to dwell on my failures, just to take it as it is and wait for the next assignment that is going to inspire me. I do not like to push inspiration, I just want it to come from me.


I do not really know a lot of photographers because painting is my concentration so I have not really gotten to know any photographers specially but I can share with you who inspires me to paint. First in high school it was Andy Warhol



I really loved his use of color and color has been my main focus in painting always. Color is my inspiration most of the time. A new artist I found has become one of my all time favorite and every time i look at her work I end up doing a reproduction. I just did one yesterday. Her name is Francoise Neilly





The painting below is a quick reproduction that I did yesterday by Francoise
