Hello Marco thanks a lot for doing these streams. I love your videos a lot, they've helped me understand a lot of concepts for painting. I wanted to ask you how to get more comfortable with painting. For context I got into an art program 2 years ago in an institute, where I've mostly survived through the excellent teaching and consistent practice. Unlike my other peers, I didn't study/do art consistently when growing up. As a result I tend to rely on the fundamentals a lot rather than intuition, especially for draftsmanship. But as a result, I find painting very hard to understand and consistently be comfortable and enjoy. Do you have any recommendations on how I can be more comfortable with enjoying traditional painting so that I don't feel lost and accelerate my learning?

How did you transition drawing mannequins and simplifying complex forms to drawing things intuitively/out of your imagination?
