How do I find inspiration?
Susan Hediger Matteson: There can be days where you can feel stumped but not too often for me. I find it is good practice to go to a spot and paint what is there, whether a small scene or an expanse. I like to revisit some spots to refine/revisit a design. My favorite thing to do is to head out when there is weather in the area. On those weather days, snow and rain, there are a million paintings happening, kind of an “everything, everywhere, all at once” and I feel I just can’t paint fast enough.
