Loose…and Simple

I long to be able to paint loose.  I consider myself to be an extremely tight painter….and perhaps a sign of still being in the very infancy stages of painting skill development.  Maybe it’s because I only know what I know, and given my early training as a drafts-person and an early infatuation with calligraphy – both very precise arts, my tendencies to return to precision and tightness overwhelms my attempts to paint loosely. But, oh goodness…Robert Burridge makes it look SO simple.
