Working Ahead

So, one of the things I like to do when I paint is to sneak a little paint onto the next canvas.

This takes the pressure off of starting with a blank surface the next day.

If I have enough paint on my tool I may even add a second canvas, or three!

I think of this approach as the "Sidle Up" method. You know, I obliquely approach the next work with a swipe of color here and there, so by the time we meet officially, we've already been having a little conversation. 

What sort of intimidating "blank canvases" do you have in your life that might benefit from the Sidle Up method? 😂
