Intuition
Intellect confuses intuition.
Piet Mondrian
Trust your intuition, your inner knowing; allow yourself to be immersed in the process of creation as a joyous and sacred dance of materials; neither listen to critics nor be one; leap into the dark secure in the knowing that wherever your feet touch down will be the right place at the right time.

I try to begin a painting with as few restrictions as possible and let intuition be my guide, as I respond to what is developing on the painting surface.
Marilyn Hughey Phillis
I often start my work devoid of any subject matter, allowing the images to be revealed rather than dictating the direction of the painting. As the painting progresses, it may germinate thoughts, ideas, feelings or dreams which need to be transformed into visual images.
Dianne McNaughton
My images come from allowing myself to connect to that deeper place where the true self lives. From that place come primal imagery, sacred symbols, and a tender palette that speaks of balance and wholeness that goes beyond words.
Janyt Piercy-Brooks
All decisions in the artistic execution of the work rest with pure intuition and cannot be translated into a self-analysis.
Marcel Duchamp
The painting leads the painter, and it becomes an intuitive experience.
Ardath Davis
Creativity comes from trust. Trust your instincts. And never hope more than you work.
Rita Mae Brown
Trust in the value of your own persistence and obey the intuitive mandate.
Nicoletta Baumeister
Trust your intuition, your inner knowing; allow yourself to be immersed in the process of creation as a joyous and sacred dance of materials. Neither listen to critics nor be one. Leap into the dark, secure in the knowing that wherever your feet touch down will be the right place at the right time.

Logic and intellect can take an artist to the dance, but intuition and creativity are the dance itself.
Gregory Packard
Trust in yourself. Your perceptions are often far more accurate than you are willing to believe.
Claudia Black
We ourselves are creations, and creativity is the Creator's gift to us. When we join in the symphony of creativity that is all around us and draw, paint, sing, dance or do anything that draws on our inner spring of pure creative sprit, we feel a connectedness, or a sense of well being. Often, all we have to do is get our 'selves' out of the way and let the creativity flow through us. We call this type of artistic expression from within Intuitive Art.
Laura Mekael Volimte
Intuitive artists are messengers. Their symbolic vocabulary originates from the infinite wisdom of higher spheres, in a non-referential time/space continuum.
Elle Nicolai
Learn to reach for colors instinctively, not automatically. Instinctively implies knowledge, sensitivity and perception. Automatically implies a mechanical reaction and a process that's akin to a formula.
Robert Wade
Creation is the product of synchronizing our energy with the universe. Once we experience the whole and recognize it, we become aware that we are nothing but the Divine Creative Force.
Rassouli
I never violate an inner rhythm. I loathe to force anything. I don't know if the inner rhythm is Eastern or Western. I know it is essential for me. I listen to it and I stay with it. I have always been this way. I have regards for the inner voice.
Lee Krasner
The painting has a life of its own.
Jackson Pollock
Art has a voice, let it speak.
Rochelle Carr
Each work is a surprise and has its own personal and intuitive meaning.
Fernando Araujo
The life of the consciousness is boundless. It interpenetrates the world and is woven in all its imagery. Therefore, we must listen closely to our inner voice.
Oskar Kokoschka
If you let your intuitive self take hold in the beginning of a work, a very beautiful ‘happening’ might emerge. You can then use your intellectual self to refine where necessary.
Barbara L. Siegal
I know intuitively when the work is right, no training can teach you this, it is simply a matter of feeling.
Robert Ryan
All good ideas arrive by chance.
Max Ernst
Painting is not for me either decorative amusement, or the plastic invention of felt reality; it must be every time: invention, discovery, revelation.
Max Ernst
