In this video I took footage from my live streams to show the making of my first in a series of Ripple Bows. I set some rules for the painting- paint only the black concentric circles and the negative spaces inside the bow using solely black paint. I used Golden Carbon Black, which is a rich semi-glossy deep black. Interspersed in the video is some music by Connie Acher, my musical pseudonym. Heard first is the song Sweetheart off of my album "For Giving" followed by a slightly stripped down version of the song "Treasure" also appearing in a more fleshed out form on the LP "For Giving".

"The sparsity of the bubbly 'Sweetheart', coupled with its lowly-mixed harmonies, makes me think of a cartoon where the Beatles are all spiders. That kinda thing -- an unsettling positivity backed with arrangements that are gonna change whenever they want." -Robin of Norman Records

This video is a glimpse into the artist Melodie Provenzano's creative process as she works on a piece from her "Ripple Bows" series (0:00). She challenges herself to paint a bow using only black paint, focusing on the concentric black circles and negative spaces within the bow (0:41).

Key aspects of the video include:
• The Painting Process (0:00-5:29): Melodie starts with a small brush, emphasizing that perfection isn't her goal (1:03). She describes the process as an "exercise in letting go" (1:53) and "brush control" (2:08). She also highlights the difference between the small round brush and the liner brush, noting the latter's ability to hold more paint (2:54).
• Artistic Philosophy (3:09): Melodie discusses her experimental approach to art, sometimes focusing on specific objects to meditate on them (3:17).
• Incorporating Music (3:54): The video features music by Connie Acher, Melodie's musical pseudonym, with the songs "Sweetheart" (3:54) and "Treasure" (7:26) from her album "For Giving."
• Continuous Improvement (4:57): After completing the first attempt, she expresses her intention to try again, aiming for improvement with each try (4:57).
• Community and Quest (1:38): Melodie mentions her "365 Day Online Art Quest," where she shares her private art practice to build a meaningful art community and improve her YouTube skills (1:38). She encourages viewers to subscribe and share their own art.
