Stacks of Paintings! What you don't see in a painting demonstration video...
It might just be the hardest part of making art - figuring out how to sort, store and categorize the paintings I make. Evaluating whether or not a painting is successful takes time. I don't usually know if a painting is good based on my first impressions, and so I throw very few paintings away.
I wanted to share this little behind-the-scenes look into my studio so you can see the ongoing task of sorting through art. Paintings can be half-finished, never-finished, maybe-finished. They can be "development pieces" that teach me something that I apply to a future, better painting. They can be scarily vulnerable, "I love it but not sure anyone else will" paintings that I'm not quite brave enough to frame yet. And all are valuable to my process as an artist!
I have great storage in my big blueprint cabinets, but somehow the paintings still end up on the floor, getting sorted. Right now (this video was filmed a few months ago), I have about 200 paintings stacked on my studio sofa, a true indication of the time I've invested in growing as an artist. Whether they are successful or not, I'm thankful for them!
