Why do a preliminary painting?

The Preliminary
The Painting



Some painters are spontaneous. Some painters are methodical. Why not be both: spontaneous and methodical? Preliminaries and studies allow for both.

The preliminary is painted directly, without drawing and corrections.
The preliminary is painted quickly.
The preliminary is painted without judgement.
The preliminary is painted for information about problems, issues, successes and failures.
The preliminary is painted for the ideas that lead to a more methodical, thoughtful and fully processed painting.
