Artistic Decisions and the Flow of Energy

With an openness of mind that doesn't attempt to regulate the flow of artistic energy,

 it becomes easier to assess all the factors which must be considered for

 addition to or removal from any one of our works

. A mindset that doesn't take into account the 

critical opinions of others finds that it is much

 smoother to sift through the elements of a piece so 

that they coalesce naturally into the artistic str

ucture we were seeking. 

The more the decision-making process takes 

on the characteristic of a smooth flowing stream of artistic

 expression unregulated by social conventions, 

the doubt and fear will dissipate and the power of choice will operate naturally and with ease.
