See First. Then Paint.

Most artists are taught to start with contour drawing, grey scales and the color wheel. But what if painting wasn’t about what you knew , but about what you noticed?

The Looking Lab is a mentorship in perceptual painting—a space to slow down, observe deeply, and trust what unfolds. It’s not about getting it “right”. It’s about shifting the way you see.

Rething How You Paint

I used to overthink everything—frantically trying to make the painting instead of just looking. The more I let go of trying so hard, the more I saw what was actually there, and the better my paintings got.

When we stop forcing, stop guessing, stop rushing—painting becomes an act of discovery, not just skill.

A Mentorship for Artists Who Want to See Differently

The Looking Lab is for artists who:


Want to loosen their grip on "right" and "wrong" in painting.
Want to trust their eyes—and their instincts—more fully.
Crave a slower, more intentional approach to their work.

Through one-on-one mentorship, we’ll explore perceptual painting as a way of seeing, not just making. You’ll learn to notice more, respond intuitively, and paint with clarity—not hesitation.
