I just have to say it: I love art that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Perfection is overrated, if you ask me. And that’s exactly why Mel McCuddin has become a bit of a secret inspiration for me. If you haven’t heard of him, McCuddin was an American artist known for his quirky, expressive paintings – somewhere between abstract madness and figurative beauty. He painted people, animals, and things that looked like… well, something straight out of a dream. Or a nightmare, but in a good way. Starting Without a Plan What fascinates me most about McCuddin is how he worked. He always started without a plan – he just threw paint onto the canvas and saw what happened. Honestly, I find that kind of admirable. Here I am, trying to write something, and I spend half my time obsessing over how to begin. McCuddin? He just went for it – literally. Eventually, the shapes and figures would emerge, almost like magic. It makes me think: How often do we hold ourselves back because we want a perfect plan...
