Painting in the Style of Sargent: Brushwork That Changed Art

May 13, 2025 in video, tips and tricks, Backwards Beauty Series

This week I am bringing in new inspiration into the studio. I am revamping my wall of inspiration and add some inspiration photos from John Singer Sargent one of my favorite painters. I am sharing with you my very raw and unscripted thoughts on my break though I had this week while painting Amanda this week's backward beauty. I am still processing everything that happened and I will share more in upcoming videos about how this one painting changed me. If you need some new inspiration into you space or art practice I encourage you to study someone you know or someone new to you and find out about there creative process and let their journey inspire you to think differently and most of all give yourself the permission to look at your work with fresh eyes. Please leave me a comment if you have any painters or artists that inspire you and that I should check out. Until next week I am wishing you find serenity thru creativity.
