“I know that I will have to make hundreds and hundreds of paintings to improve, and I am willing to take that journey.” — Jill Stefani Wagner
This quote brings memories of an old expression about experience … that you only get experience by making mistakes. Painful but true.
As artists, we can sometimes stare at great paintings and wonder how the artist did it. We wonder what kind of special genius they had that allowed them to create such incredible art. We sometimes start asking ourselves bad questions, like “How come I’m not that talented?”
Wrong question.
You have talent. You just need good mentors along your path to pull that talent out and inspire you to practice it daily.
Jill Stefani Wagner is one of those special mentors you need along your path. She’ll help you improve your skills so that your art journey is always in an upward motion.
One of Jill’s mentors gave her some pivotal advice early on: “Pick one subject, and paint it 25 times.” At the time, Jill didn’t understand why, but she followed that advice, and it changed her life. Now, she’s reaching out to you through this new video and sharing this foundational secret to her incredible success (along with a bunch more!).
