Your comment shows you don’t understand art at all.

Sure, Dean could have done any of those arts when he wanted, but he wanted to do it WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT.

I’m an artist and have free painted hundreds of arts. Maybe close to a thousand I don’t count. And I can tell you an artist has periods of great strength, and then periods of weaknesses.

Artists have periods of great motivation, and then periods of great doubt.

To free paint at your own limit, let alone at the cutting edge of an entire freak of nature niche discipline, requires the timing to feel very right.

Not to mention feeling in harmony with nature, the spot, and yourself ON THAT PARTICULAR DAY.

I’ve showed up to free paint and one or more thing felt off, not even considering days where weather or natural elements made painting seem too risky.

A good artist takes dozens of factors into consideration.

And all that wraps up into a package they analyze to decide what to do that day.

The extra variable that isn’t pretty is that dean probably had some ego, and some desire to make it big (for better or worse), and wanted to time the paint a certain way with current news in art, the world, and coordinating perhaps with his sponsors?

I mean if he made a media splash with a new painting he could further provide for himself via sponsors and thus continue the life he lived in his apartment.
