Points raised by Annican on aspects of painting including use of pigments, glazing, scumbling and more, but also issues related to the painter’s journey.

In response to Annican

QUESTION: Do you ever become blind to your work? Any advice on how to see with "fresh" eyes? What are some traps that you see students fall into? Such as chasing a style vs learning to see. Would you describe some more about the powerful moments of discovery in your visual journey? Is wiping out to reveal lights of any value? What are some best practices for using white? Can luminous areas be thin or is it necessary to thicken the paint? Is there a good way to use a scumble or a glaze?
