Abstract	This article examines the role of spending time with others in and through artistic research and practice. I draw from my doctoral work which took me on a cross-Canada journey visiting 125 artists in their studios. Following the studio visits, I made a series of paintings of artists' studios, however a year later these same paintings were cut up and rearranged to create collaborative studio assemblages on the walls of the Tate Exchange Gallery in Liverpool. Drawing on the metaphor of a never-ending-painting to examine never-ending pedagogies, this article examines the evolution of this project through three iterations of the studio paintings. With each iteration, I explore different ways of knowing others through making thus proposing the performative and relational qualities of artistic research. The first iteration allowed me to spend time with artists even in their absence, as I engaged with our conversations through painting their studios, thus blurring the lines between solitary and social art practices. The second iteration allowed me to give up my art to others through asking them to create collages with fragments of my studio paintings. And the third iteration allowed my work to merge with other arts-based researchers. Through this process, I propose that making art allows for multiple conversations to emerge through spending time getting to know others through art making. (As Provided).
