As artists, we go through several phases on our way to creating pieces. It all starts with this period of play and discovery that I call the exploratory phase, and to talk about it with me are Growth Studio members Sabrina Setaro, Alyssa Marquez, and Jess Fredrick.
In this roundtable episode of The Savvy Painter Podcast, you’ll go on a deep dive into the first stage of artistic creation: the exploratory phase. Sabrina, Alyssa, Fredick, and I will discuss what happens in this stage and what they’ve discovered about their work in the process, techniques to balance play with purpose during your exploration, how they avoid overwhelm and overthinking during this discovery phase, and more!
1:10 - The five phases of artistic creation
4:27 - Sabrina, Alyssa and Jess tell a little bit about themselves
8:00 - What the exploratory phase looks like for each roundtable participant in their studio
14:05 - Allowing further experimentation and how to keep frustration at bay during this phase
24:48 - More experimentation techniques you can use to help you get out of a rut as an artist
34:43 - Insights the participants received about their artwork during the exploratory phase
46:08 - How to know if you’re using this phase for deep exploration or as a way to hide from something else
