I was watching a video by a top level music promoter the other day called Damien keyes who spoke about how artists should show the world their experiments and progress towards bigger things than just the big thing alone, because apparently it's 2024 and we are acting like it's 2004. For myself, and I assume for many, this is about 95% of the craft and I am starting to agree with him. Otherwise countless pieces of art and music never see the light of day, which for myself has accumulated to hundreds of pieces of art and music (mainly music). So from now on I will be a bit more active and post things that were never intended to be shown, either because they were experiments or my obsession for perfection has once again got the better of me and holding me back. Here is an example of composition training i 'finished' yesterday using only red, as I had a lot of it. I'm not sure if I should continue working on it more and run the risk of destroying it....after all it is an experiment leading towards a finished idea on another canvas but sometimes experiments end up being your best material in some people's eyes.
