Artist are Crazy people being the most like themselves. Your job is not to work for Critics. Your job is to be the most like yourselves. From the salt marshes and moss-draped live oaks of the South Carolina Lowcountry, to the New York art world, Clear Seeing Place takes the reader behind the studio door to explore the making of a painter in intimate detail. Brimming with the joy of process and a love of art history, Brian Rutenberg reveals the places, people, and experiences that led to the paintings for which he is well known today. This book is packed with ideas, observations, techniques, and career advice all thoughtfully arranged into six sections designed to inspire artists of all levels, as well as anyone interested in creativity. Clear Seeing Place is a companion to the artist's popular YouTube series Brian Rutenberg Studio Visits and is a love letter to painting written by a painter.
