Art Prompt: Creating More Intimacy to the Art You Make
มุมมอง 120หลายเดือนก่อน
I am a strong believer that the work we make is just like any other intimate relationship we have in our lives. When we have one person and yourself enter into a relationship a third thing is born. It's unique. And like any relationship we need to take time for ourselves to understand what we bring to the relationship and what the other brings to you. This month I am providing you some basic to...

Making Commercially Viable Paintings that Speak to Our Deepest Self
That’s beautiful! I absolutely understand your struggle as a slow painter myself 😂
Absolutely !! the antiquated mindset of hierarchy is obsolete. I believe creativity is our connection to the Divine within. We are beginning a whole new Aquarian AGE of ... Divine mind Creativity in all areas of life. As an Aquarian moon person I feel like I have worked towards this my whole life.💖🙏🏼 Its very exciting.
You rock Lauren.
Thank you! Going to try this now!
@@carynpercell8979 your so welcome
What size paper are you using? I haven’t seen one that large in tear out form. Is it watercolor by chance?
@@carynpercell8979 it’s actually a printmaking paper 300 pound by fabiano
Awesome!! Thank you so much🙏🫶
Can you tell us clearly the title of Diebenkorn's book that she loves?
@@ed8446 this interview was from 2 years ago with Krista Harris. Not sure - but you could write her and ask. She would know better than I.
I tootally recommend wet on wet painting! ❤
I couldn't get any sound.
oh no- thanks for letting me know
Oh my goodness! I'm so pleased this showed up. You two are speaking my language. Thank you so much 🙏❤️
Amazing. It’s an important message. Finding a path home.
Yes, it's true- our creative voices will carry us home.
I’d so love to do that workshop though I’d be a bit anxious about using a brush or pencil but I believe I’d be breaking my paradigm! Best wishes to all managing to get to this workshop.
Flowing into the workshop is what I like to say. You know I have been mentoring/ teaching for three decades - and - the fear is real. But I am here to tell you- magic happens when you get going losing yourself in a painting. I'm good at facilitating that. Will say not much I can say I am good at- but I love to hold space.
Love this interview! I shall eventually share it on my Creative Freedom Academy platform - doing a similar kind of work to you Lauren. And I have followed Adrienne myself for several years. She is my go-to visionary who validates me to myself and my life-long sensitivities. I'm so glad I found this vid through her email this morning. Thank you both for this interview. Steve :)
Wonderful Steve! I am going to check out your work. Creative Freedom Academy rings well. Do you do podcasts?
I love your work. I love your ethos and spiritual practice - Thank you for the inspiration 🥰 I am a therapist that found my way back to PLAY through art - and I LOVE the idea of personal investigation/exploration - finding my way back to my essential self. I hope to do one of your retreats sometime soon . 💖
Thank you Vicky. Makes me happy when resonating energy occurs. You can get some free prompts by joining my mailer and I have on line prerecorded classes you can find at mantecon studio.com.There is a 30 day art journey you might resonate to for more - play!!
@@laurenmantecon ❣ Thank you I did . Also will probably get the 30 day offering as well. This weekend.
@@vickyventer7488 just wanted to let you know we started a bundle summer special with all video tutorials that you can get here- it is a screaming deal if I do say so myself. manteconstudio.com/virtual-content/p/all-virtual-courses
@@laurenmantecon thank you - I will take a look at it :) Have a great weekend
I call it toddler painting 😂 when I'm painting and i hate it, or its not turning out the way i wanted, i put paint directly onto the canvas and smear it wherever i feel would be fun, and i always end up liking it, it helps release the stress from art block!❤❤ I definitely don't wear gloves tho!! I use dawn, it works pretty good too
That is true. Try putting paint on Seran wrap and smooshing the design you made with the paint on surface - then move around and make ghost images and you have a repeat pattern
This has so much depth its STUNNING 😍 it reminds me of the feeling of looking at the earth from the moons perspective
Thank you. I do like to imagine a world in between spaces or dimensions so I suppose the moon to the earth would be a shift in that space . Appreciate the comment
Thats just the under painting?????? People would pay money for that ❤
What is gesso?
Its’s a primer- a binder. Used on wood surfaces and or raw canvas so. Paint will not absorb into surface. Usually when you buy a canvas that you want to paint on that has been stretched over stretcher bars it has been pre gessoed. That is usually an cyclic gesso. Dries fast and hard, usually white in hue. Organic gesso is used with an animal hide. Think canoes back in the day or even guitars now, animal hide is one of the strongest binders we have.
Love your work! Really draws you in. You have a very lovely voice as well. Hope your rotator cuff heals soon!!!
thank you- appreciate that.
I love the blue one. Please look at Mary Newcomb's work I think you will like her work. She was from UK Suffolk. I like your art.
@@marypartridge5154 thank you - I will.
So meaningful. Thank you. Dreaming of returning to NM for workshop.
So glad you enjoyed. Yes, come to New Mexico- I have a painting workshop Paint Big - in July - and another Soul Narration in September- you can check in out at www.manteconstudio.com
I started as a well trained impressionist that mostly was only dabbling because my day job was very demanding and providing a good income. After semi retiring, I was dabbling in almost every style. Then upon full retirement and setting up a more legit studio, I became much more interested in abstract oil. Then, not bing satisfied with where is was going, I fell into reading a lot of best seller fiction novels and mostly stopped viewing other artist work online or off line. Around the same time, I stopped listening to any background music while painting. I'm not suggesting to others to not listen to music or view other art works. Just, at some point you may want to have a completely quite environment, including your mind telling you maybe try this or that of what you seen from others. Having the novel's influence unknowingly hidden in the background with all their wonderful lessons of empathy and morality seems to work well for creativity
Yes - agreed . I have a yearly container of 10 artists in my dive deep program. I strongly suggest during that time to not get into posting or viewing on social media as work on developing our deeper intuition towards authentic work. Here the time together is best spent with ‘ the best studio practice is with a closed studio door’. I have found the benefits of support are in guiding folks towards originality- u fortunately our world spinning so fast has left many hanging out in superficial realms of making paintings that are good enough formally speaking. It’s nobody’s fault but deep inner listening sometimes needs to be re-learned
Hi there, I heard you say you use mineral spirits on your painting. Does the mineral spirit dry? I accidentally used gamsol mineral spirit thinking it was varnish. I fricken wasn’t paying attention when I bought it as well as when I applied it. Over confidence set me up. Thank you if you’re able to provide a response.
I use as a medium while painting - one part gamsol- one part mineral spirits- one part linseed oil. I would not be alarmed too much if you used mineral spirits . It dries fast. Now if you used by accident a acrylic varnish - oil and plastic do not mix especially when wet. You can paint oil on top of acrylic but not the other way around.
Ok got it! Thank you. Fortunately, I realized that gamsol mineral spirit is such a mild solvent that in a few hours it dried nicely. Exactly like you said! Your video helped me get an understanding of how the mineral spirit can collaborate with the painting and not damage it when used correctly. Thank you so much.
P R O M O S M ✌️
Amen, Praise the Lord
Outstanding discussion. Look forward to seeing more.
Thanks Lynn
Y3Z$, it emulates ENERGY✨️3N3RGY✨️ENERGI
❤SO GRAT3FUL for this video🥹 I LOV3 ASTROLOGY TOO!! 💫
Do you need to use a medium on the magazine type paper?
I find just a glue front and back- this can be a medium as glue if you prefer
❤️❤️❤️❤️
coolio!
Towel power
Yes those towels are near me always. Those and baby wipes play a large part to reductive as well
Cool
Oh cool my process is "this looks like crap" lol
It will pass if you just stay with it . Think of it like a child growing up. We want to nurture
@@laurenmantecon yeah most of the time after i finish i think it look nice :>
