You may have answered this question somewhere in your video, so please excuse the question if you did, but I’m curious why artists would want to undergo the pressure of a speed challenge when our art time is suppose to be our zen time?

No worries Mari-Beth Greedey, I guess yhe answer would be different for each artist. But for me it helps me to hone in or sharpen my ability to quickly take in the information I see in front of me. I do a lot of Plein air and sketching of people or animals while I'm out and about. And they constantly move, it might have been something specific about them or their movements I want to capture. So I need to get that information down quickly. I don't do it all the time but it does help both my mind and loosening up my arm for the work I want to do. I hope that helps.

As another artist who enjoys this kind of challenge, I'll give my opinion as well. I actually find it difficult to motivate myself to draw if I'm not feeling a little adrenaline. I just get bored too quickly, so I like having some goal or challenge that I'm working on. I also think this loosens me up. I'm a perfectionist, so this forces me to let go of being perfect and just paint.

@@klc7275 thank you so much for your take on this kind of painting. I agree it helps shake things up and loosens you up and not get stuck in the details. I actually really love yhe loosness of the lemons I did, I would have added so much more detail to it if I didn't have the timer. But it would have taken away what I love about it, the simplicity of it. Again thank you!
