the it of it

The IT is what happens when you’re thinking about something else. When you have done your preparation, when your mind is free, your purpose is clear and your paints are mixed to just the right consistency of flow and tone and tint and hue. The IT is rare, and evasive: one whiff of doubt and it’s gone.

With so many variables and possibilities when painting it is easy to become unfocused, to become stuck with just the skill. The skill is needed to unlock IT. But to use the skill you must first let go and become unstuck.
