Appreciation towards  Iris Scott for providing the following description:

gooood问艺术家Iris Scott为什么会用手指作画，这种方法为创作带来了哪些改变。Iris Scott告诉我们手指画法打破了常规，不在调色板上调出具体的颜色，也不再层层涂抹得到最终效果。作画通常在一天之内一鼓作气的画完。作画当天从早到晚不停的奋战，因为颜料会在10小时内失去柔软的质地而变硬，她需要敏捷快速的工作。手指有五个触点，是传统画笔一个触点的五倍，因此作画也可以更快。当然这样也使得创作过程没有功夫在调色板上混合颜色。Iris Scott的画作本身就是色彩绚丽的颜色铺子，让人着迷。

她的画作中常出现梵高<星夜>中的两种线条风格：歪曲的长线和破碎的短线。同时混合点彩画法和其它画法。快速，熟练，淋漓尽致的创作让有着强烈笔触的作品倍具感染力。

Q:  Oil Finger Paintings is very special and amazing  –Why use Finger this way? And how has it changed your creative process?

A:  Finger painting with oils is a totally not traditional strategy to paint, it breaks many of the normal rules.  Traditional artists paint with various layers and glazes to work their way up to light colors.  Artists also generally utilize a mixing palette to make very specific colors….well I don’t use either of these traditional techniques!  My finger paintings are usually created in one day as rapidly as possible.  On paintings days I start in the early morning and work until midnight.  I have to work quickly because the oils will lose their soft texture after about 10 hours.  It’s hectic and sometimes very stressful to race the clock like this, but the benefit is a swirling, movement-filled, composition.  Finger painting also allows me 5 contact points, so now I apply colors about 5 times faster than I used to achieve with a single brush tip.  Since I do not have time to mix colors on a palette anymore, instead I buy ALL the colors made by my favorite brand of paint.  I have so many different colors you would be amazed.
