Community Meet Up: Loosen Up – How to Stop Overthinking

What if your painting could feel more alive, more expressive, and more like you, without losing the subject you’re trying to capture?

Imagine creating without overthinking every brushstroke or mark! Would you enjoy creating more, if you could?

Join us for a live discussion about how to loosen up your painting while still keeping structure, accuracy, and intention in your work.

Because loose painting doesn’t mean careless painting.

We’ll explore how to create artwork that feels invigorating, fresh, expressive, and full of movement while still capturing the character, form, and feeling of your subject. We’ll discuss some simple exercises to help loosen up that every artist can add to their practice today.

Learn how to:

• Simplify your subject so your painting feels clear, not cluttered
• Use confident brushwork to create energy and movement
• Focus on big shapes, strong values, and expressive color
• Avoid overworking your painting before it loses its spark
• Create work that feels freer, fresher, and more alive

If you’ve ever felt like your paintings start strong but become tight, overworked, or too careful, this event will give you practical tools to help you paint with more confidence and freedom.

Join us and learn how to loosen up, trust your eye, and bring more life into your next painting.
