How can you "let it happen" but also "have a message"at the same time?! Do you see the contradiction?! Maybe the weird should have said that, by getting out of the way weeks letting it happen, something to would come through, WITHOUT calling it a message. You can't be spontaneous YET deliver a message!!

Hello, I just discovered your podcast and like it a lot! However, in this episode, I don't agree with you about self-taught painters who'd eventually get stuck because they don't know certain things. Many self-taught people (maybe even most) can be extremely motivated and will research, as well as experiment, ways out of any problems! There is an abundance of videos online and, given they're adults, it's not fair to assume they wouldn't know what's good for them. Just a thought on that point, but I appreciate your podcast a lot!
