So many questions reveal themselves as a painting or drawing comes to life. Val and Armin share a lively conversation on a snowy day in Michigan asking each other questions like how do you start and how do you know when you are finished? They each have predictably contrasting answers but there are definitely some overlaps and common thoughts. The tempo of creation has a different rhythm for each. Inspiration can come out of nowhere and the ending can also happen at any point of the journey. Deadlines can drive the completion but more often it is that knowing feeling an artist picks up when entering the studio from a good night's rest and saying, that's it!
