Representational painters: place your works in a larger context. Give your work not only breadth but breath. Do not 'copy' what you see outwardly but give it 'spirit.

Abstract painters: redefine your perspectives. Think in terms of the whole, not simply its parts.

Respond to others about your work with equanimity.

Ask yourself, 'What is obstructing my vision?' What is the difference between seeing and looking?
