Gustaf Tidholm views the process of painting as a form of communication akin to a dance between the artist and the paint. He finds acrylics particularly exhilarating due to their fast drying time, which requires letting go of control as the paint seemingly has a mind of its own. Tidholm describes painting as a perfect form of meditation, where initial ideas often evolve into something entirely different in the moment of inspiration. Abstract painting allows emotions and the subconscious to emerge freely, resulting in genuine and pure expressions that are fascinating to interpret and articulate.
