What to Do When You Want to Throw Out a Painting

Do you ever just get so frustrated with the painting you're working on that you just want to throw it out?
I had someone ask about this in my most recent Q&A for my Mixed Media Collage Classes. It's such a great question!
Here's the real question I get to: Are you willing to create a disaster and then keep working?

You nailed it!.That's exactly how I have found to be. It can take a while, but when I get to that point where I'm willing to take that risk is when something occurs that I love. Thank you for this reminder!!

Well said! Some of my “where am I going with this moments”, “risk and run with it”, times lead me into new adventures. I have gone back to pieces that I wasn’t sure about and used them in other collage projects, or I took the risk and moved forward, never allowing the process to cease my determination to explore and learn things from each moment.

You described that shift so well-it really opens up a whole new horizon, doesn’t it? Thanks for the comment, Jill!

@@marabethquinart thanks, and you are welcome! I am looking forward to the landscape class after the holidays. I’m signed up, but right now lots of company and travel.

I totally get it-and there’s absolutely no rush, which is nice! Happy holidays 🥰

Oh I wish I had heard this before I painted over my last canvas, which I gave up on. That was a mistake - or perhaps a lesson learned :-) Now I am so stuck I can't even put a single dot of color down and have an exhibition coming up soon..!

Yes, I know that feeling! I know it will get going again-and good luck on the exhibition!
