Combs recently delved into the world of painting, a move that helped his songwriting process. “It really changed the way that I write songs,” Combs says. “When I paint, I might start with a very abstract idea or maybe even just a feeling, but from there I’ll paint and scrape and paint and erase and keep on painting until something starts to take shape. I just let nature play out.”
