This weeks tip is about creative freedom:
You know how good a fresh shower feels, washing off the dirt and sweat. Believe us, cleaning up your workbench is the same for your mind. Clean it once in a while and you will be happier painter with a clear focus on your projects.
It is nothing bad, when your workspace is a mess during the heat of creation, but often the heat is followed by a void. Take your time. Clean up your mind, your creative energies. Make room for fresh energies and motivation.
Cleaning your workbench, talk about brushes, colours, material, spirit etc.

Cleaning up is sometimes so relaxing, especially when I have finished a bigger project, but beside my workingplace I clean the complete room in addition... restarting with fresh athmosphere :)
This IS a good tip! I like my table to look like a miniature parade ground though at the end of a painting session it looks like a miniature battlefield...
I have to do a complete clean-up of my workbench about every 2 months. It definitely helps my focus!
I should do this, especially after the Bananalicious Contest!!!
I do this once a week now since reading your Room for freshness article. Great tip
So true... Thanks for the reminder :)
I did this just last night!
