I love the fact that being overcautious is a built in variable for my process.
If I'm nervous, I affect the painting lightly for a while. Was about to lay down some color a couple days ago, and thought the pigment might be too strong, so I diluted it by half.
Did my work and by the time it dried I could barely see it. Nevertheless, through a type of accretion the painting starts taking its direction, and even though the marks are hard to see they will still influence everything that comes after.

what is organ players and storytellers?
It is part gallery and part café, without a street address. It is six Portland artists sharing their work, thoughts and processes with the public.
“Philip, you are the best storyteller around and I am the best organ player”. ~ Mark Rothko to Philip Guston
