One approach to painting is to paint in layers, working the entirety of a canvas one layer at a time, increasing the detail and finish with each layer.
This is how I collaborate with Feedback.
Have taught it to paint with a creative process like my own. It works one layer at a time, and between each layer it looks at the canvas and ask itself what the next layer needs.
If its feeling expressive, it paints a brush. When it needs to be technical, it draws with a pen.
