For the first time in several months, I sat down and speed-painted. It was refreshing. The freedom of expression and lack of self-criticism when speed-painting is unrivaled.
NOTES on Speed-painting
It is an extremely good way to loosen up. Perfectionism is just not possible in art. One can come close to it, but perfection will always be out of reach. Speed-painting helps an artist lose their preconceptions about what their making, and just paint it.
It can also help with detail. By being forced to make such general, quick detail in speed-painting, an artist's ability to create fine detail increases.
