Not forcing the paint to look like a literal thing

The longer I paint, the more I realize that the really exciting things that happen are when I let go, intentionally lose control.
What do I mean by intentionally loosing control? Not forcing the paint to look like a literal thing; like a door, a flower, an arm. This is where drawing skills are very important. When suggesting “things” and not painfully rendering them, bits of truth need to be sprinkled around (accurate drawing).

Getting emotionally involved with your painting helps to initially discover a direction. No, just throwing paint on the canvas isn’t a direction. How do you want it to feel, the mood.
