I find it difficult sometimes to motivate to paint. There are two types of this issue and I don't know which one is worse: one kind revolves around a sense of dissatisfaction with progress...perhaps there comes a point in the development of an image where everything one has been trying to achieve comes crashing catastrophically down into a hideous pile of disappointment. It can be very difficult to overcome, but very frequently turns out to have a bonus. Despite the initial desperation at seeing one's work amount to crap, I find that this is a crisis that I MUST go through in any image that eventually reaches a successful finale. So, this can, ultimately, be a very good type of crisis.
Much worse is the second kind, the sort of generalized free-floating anxiety type of ennui that nails one in one's place preventing further action...for this kind I am still searching for a remedy...
