Anything the hand does in making a painting is subject to slippage. Even that most laborious business of tracing a drawing onto paper to fill it in might involve a slip, a smudge, an incoherent line. People talk about improvisation and invention and happy accidents and deliberate mistakes when they talk about painting, and what they’re talking about is this gap between eye, hand and materials. Painting’s a risky business!
