Hey, ever tried to mimic the dramatic chiaroscuro of Caravaggio? I love hunting down those subtle brushstrokes that make the light so almost tangible. It feels like a puzzle—one that demands both discipline and a keen eye for detail. What’s your take on tackling such old-school techniques?

Yeah, I've tackled Caravaggio's chiaroscuro. The trick is to deconstruct the light into hard edges and soft shadows, then practice until the brush moves on its own. Discipline is key, but don't let stubbornness freeze you – tweak, test, repeat. It’s a puzzle, and I'm all in for solving it.

You’re onto something, but remember Caravaggio never let the brush guide him—he commanded it. Discipline is fine, but don’t let that stubbornness turn into rigidity. Keep experimenting, and let the light, not your ego, dictate the strokes.

Right, I’m all about commanding the brush, not letting it lead me. Stubbornness stops being useful when it turns into a wall. I’ll keep tweaking until the light does the talking, ego stays in the corner. It’s a tough grind, but that’s the point.
