[@susanstone3588]

Reminds me of Jackson Pollock and his drip paintings, this painting was stunning even in it's early stages.

[@PamelaCaughey]

Many thanks, Susan - I'm really enjoying the process. I added a few more colors and layers and it is done now ;) I will show the finished work in a YT short ;)

[@maryrouse6509]

Your ability to create meaningful dialogue and meaningful marking at the same time is refreshing and so helpful! The process of creating is so important; much more so than the product for most of us.

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks Mary! Yes process, process, process-if we find the ones we love our work will hopefully reflect that after the last brushstroke 🎉

[@pineconemediadesign]

Thank you Rex Art! And to Pamela!

[@PamelaCaughey]

Many thanks ;)

[@bethhiggins8721]

THANK YOU Rex Art! Love the freedom of your mark making and then how you rein it in. The 2 step canvas is so cool!

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks so much, Beth!

I love your calm + the way you ‘explain’ things fits well with my way of learning. I love Rex Art for its custom panel options, and its service! My first order, they called me to be sure I understood the sizes! 👏

[@PamelaCaughey]

Awesome - thanks Tania! Yes, they also call - a LIVE human - no fake bot - to confirm all custom orders. For this kind of TLC - it's truly a rare family owned company that doesn't cut corners ;) So happy you liked the video - thanks!

[@annrubino6252]

Wonderful to view this technique with you, Pam. Your guestures are full of energy, indeed like a quick Autumn wind whipping at the trees. Wouldn't Pollock, and others, be gobsmacked at your use of new tools. Thank you for this.

[@PamelaCaughey]

Well you are much too kind and generous-but thank you anyways! After so many years I think I’m realizing it is best to gravitate toward what I am most excited about and marks are it!

[@katiedc8239]

It's always fun when you discover your tools can do a wide variety of things. I was thinking "music" as I watched this, so that's interesting. Looking forward to how this proceeds for sure! And side note, aren't those inflatable collars for dogs a game-changer? I got one for my dog last year after she had surgery and whoa, way better than the cone of shame, ha! Have a good one and thank you!

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! Yes to the inflatable collars-Vincent can get through the pet door without any problems! I’m so happy you also thought of music; there is a certain rhythm I feel I’m being led by, and it is a great way to use the whole body to manipulate all the tools. Happy painting to you!!

[@BuzzyStreet]

It's completely mesmerizing, even at this early stage.

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks so much! I finished it today and it is called “Tempest” -I will post the next few layers in a short. 😊

[@wendywatson2566]

Thank you Pam, your last two videos are exactly what I needed to see today - and to hear your commentary. To say I've had a tough 12 months would be an understatement, the last 6 have been every parent's worse nightmare, and I've hardly been in the studio. Now I feel inspired to get in there, have a massive clear-out and play without an end result in mind. I'll look forward to seeing the next stage - the stage i have the most difficulty with!

[@PamelaCaughey]

You are so welcome! I’m so sorry to hear you e had a difficult 12 months. I too have found the last year to be challenging in many ways. I hope for the best for you and am so happy you have been inspired by the videos. Please paint for the joy of it; life is fleeting. 😊

[@wendywatson2566]

@@PamelaCaughey “life is so fleeting” - a lesson rammed home lately.

[@PamelaCaughey]

@@wendywatson2566 Oh - I'm so sorry :(

[@cathygormanson2941]

Total abandon! Love It! Can you tell us why you use airbrush medium to thin paint rather than water?

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks for your comment and question :) I have read and heard that while water can be used sparingly, it is best to add "like" chemical/molecular" structure to like - and airbrush medium is an acrylic polymer like acrylic - vs water which is now. Water - if you add too much, will impact the adhesion and binding properties - so that is why I like to use airbrush medium :)

[@pamciquier307]

Love this, Pam! ❤

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thanks so much -I appreciate that! 🎉

[@ITcanB]

Jackson Pollock comes to mind ❤

[@PamelaCaughey]

Yes I am a fan of his for sure! I am choosing to work with a variety of tools on a wall vs the floor but live the energy of a Pollock! 😊 Thank you for your comment-much appreciated!

[@nancyfern8044]

Definitely musical! I was thinking of a symphony as you created this lyrical painting. Such variety! And of course, Jackson Pollock comes to mind. I was hoping you would add a bright color, but as you progressed, I changed my mind & could see the beauty of Fall showing up here. Will there be a part 3 or are you calling this done?

[@PamelaCaughey]

Thank you so much, Nancy! I’m glad you also hear music -I thought it was just me! The painting is now finished (called “Tempest”) and I will publish a KZbin short showing the final stages with comments. On to the next!

[@nicolespitalier2335]

Great as it is at this point! It is difficult for me to know when to stop… May be you will décide to continue, and I am excites to see how
