Key Characteristics of Intuitive Artists

  • Process-Oriented: The journey of creation is as important as the final piece.

  • Spontaneous: They react to what's unfolding, letting the art guide the next step.

  • Non-Judgmental: There's a freedom from fear of "mistakes" or needing to create something sellable.

  • Subconscious Connection: Aims to tap into the inner self, drawing from emotions, dreams, the subconscious mind.

  • Authentic Expression: The goal is to reveal the artist's true self, not to follow external rules or trends.

  • Layered & Textured: Often involves mixed media, building depth through spontaneous marks, colors, and shapes. 

  • Open to the ineffable: In some cases receptive to the divine and other spiritual energies.
