- Exploring intuitive and abstract art in this video!Breaking down the differences and similarities in a simple, fun way. Intuitive art is all about letting your feelings guide your art-making, kind of like painting what you feel on the inside. Abstract art, on the other hand, is more about playing with shapes, colors, and ideas in a way that might not look like real things but has a lot of deep thoughts behind it. I’ll show you some examples and talk about how sometimes these two types of art can overlap and blend together. This video is perfect for anyone who's curious about art or looking to understand these two exciting styles better. Get ready to see how art can be both about feeling and thinking in different, yet sometimes similar, ways.

Excellent video and explanation. Thank you so much 😊
I love that you can create fantastic intuitive art and then sit back and intellectually explain the art form.
The juxtaposition between complete freedom and formalised shapes is what - for me - creates the tension and the excitement in your work. Apologies if this sounds pompous - I am just trying to work out for myself what it is about your style that is so deeply attractive. Your work reminds me of Hundertwasser who was such an exciting artist but always with architectural disciplines underpinning everything he created. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really touched by your comment. Messages like yours inspire me to keep creating and sharing my work. I'm glad you enjoy the mix of freeform art and structured shapes; it's a big part of what I do. Comparing my work to Hundertwasser is such an honor. His blend of art and architecture is something I admire greatly. Thank you again for your support and for taking the time to share your thoughts. It means a lot to me!
This is fascinating, you explained this so well ☺☺
Thank you so much I’m glad you found it well explained! I was worried it’s got too mixed up at the end 😅 thank you again!
I learned something new today it’s amazing how similar intuitive and abstract art is
Can’t wait for more interesting videos of yours👏🏼🎉❤️
Thank you Katalin for your support! I’m glad you found this video informative ❤️
I loved your talk. Good explanation of intuitive and abstract art. Please do more.
A very clear explanation Anita! I make up my intuitive art as I go along but when I do other abstract work I tend to start out with an end goal in mind of what I want the art to be/look like. Great video! 😍
Loved the journey through the different modern abstract and intuitive artists. Would love to learn more!
❤❤❤❤
Merci ❤️
Thank you for your informative and really helpful video.
I am wondering, though, is it important to have some knowledge of how paint mixes so that a mess isn't made on the canvas? Such as turning colors into mud?
I draw expressively and from imagination. My people look like people and trees look like trees. But these look sometimes childlike, and harken back to cultural influences. I feel I wouldn't be able to draw from imagination if I didn't have formal drawing skills. Im really interested to know if people who have no prior art experience will be happy with what they create intuitively? I suppose people will be happy if thats what they set out to do.
I am thinking of teaching intuitive painting, but those things have been on my mind. Also, could I teach intuitive painting without any knowledge as a painter?
Thankyou.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment and for engaging with the video Leslie!
You’ve raised some excellent points. When it comes to intuitive painting, having a basic understanding of how colors mix can definitely help avoid unwanted results, like muddy colors. However, the beauty of intuitive art is that it embraces spontaneity and exploration. While knowledge of color theory can enhance the process, it’s not a strict requirement. Many artists discover their own unique techniques through experimentation, and sometimes, happy accidents can lead to unexpectedly beautiful results.
As for your expressive drawing, it’s wonderful that you can create from imagination, especially with your work reflecting personal and cultural influences. This connection to your inner world is a big part of what makes intuitive and abstract art so powerful.
Regarding teaching intuitive painting, it’s certainly possible to guide others even without extensive formal training. The key is to create a space where participants feel free to explore without fear of making mistakes. You can focus on encouraging self-expression and creativity rather than technical perfection. Sharing your own journey and the process of creating intuitively could inspire others to let go of their inhibitions and discover their own artistic voice.
Ultimately, whether someone is happy with their intuitive creations often depends on their expectations. If the goal is to express oneself and enjoy the process, then satisfaction is likely. If someone expects their work to align with traditional standards of realism, they might need more guidance to manage those expectations.
It sounds like you have a deep understanding of both the creative process and the concerns that might come up for those new to art. That empathy will be incredibly valuable if you decide to teach intuitive painting!
Loved that! Thank you 🤩
Intuitive art can end up representational with recognizable images. It isn't always completely abstract. And abstract art can be planned out and less intuitive with things like composition in mind. Intuitive process is the process right? And abstract is the actual image itself? Abstract can be non intuitive. And intuitive isn't only abstract. Right? I've been trying to learn about intuitive art for months and this video confused me a bit.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment and for diving deep into the exploration of intuitive and abstract art. I really appreciate your engagement and the opportunity to discuss these concepts further. I’m sorry if the video caused any confusion. My aim was to shed light on the nuanced ways intuition and abstraction manifest in art, but I understand that these topics can sometimes blur together and raise questions.
Think of art like making a meal. Sometimes, a chef follows a recipe step by step (planned art)and other times they might just throw together ingredients based on what feels right at the moment (intuitive art). Both ways can make a great meal, but they use different approaches.
Intuitive Art is like cooking without a recipe. The artist goes with their gut adding a bit of this and a bit of that based on how they feel. This kind of art can look like anything - it might remind you of real things or it might just be a mix of colors and shapes.
Abstract Art is more about the ingredients than the final dish. It doesn't try to look like something specific from the real world. It's all about playing with colors, lines, and shapes in interesting ways. Sometimes, making abstract art is like cooking without a recipe (intuitively), but other times, an artist might plan it all out carefully.
Even when artists plan their work carefully they still use their intuition. It's like when you're cooking and decide it needs a little more salt without tasting it. That's intuition. So, every piece of art no matter the style has a bit of this "cooking without a recipe" feeling. It might not be obvious, but it's there guiding small choices like what color to use next or when a painting is finished.
So, whether art looks like real things or it's all about playing with colors and shapes a little bit of that gut feeling or intuition is always part of making it.
I hope this makes things clearer and I'm here to continue the conversation. Your journey into understanding art is importan and I'm glad to be a part of it. Thank you for bringing up your questions and thoughts.
@@anitawinterz Thanks so much for breaking this down for me! It sounds like I've got a pretty good understanding of it. One youtuber I watch said there is a difference between painting with intuition and full blown intuitive art. It seems you can take the intuitive part really far, by not allowing yourself to care at all about the result, being completely devoid of judging or even evaluating the work. It is really hard to work that way but I am fascinated by it and am trying to learn all I can. So your comment really helped! I find I have pieces that are partially intuitive and others that are full blown intuitive art. Where I didn't allow myself to think about how it looked or if I liked it or not. Thank you for being a part of my art journey!!! Have a great day 👍
I'm really glad to hear you're getting into this and finding your way! It’s great that you're exploring both - sometimes letting your gut lead the way a bit when you paint and other times just going all in with intuition not worrying at all about how the final piece will look. This idea of not judging your art and just letting it flow is super interesting, isn't it? It’s like dancing without worrying about the steps. Sure it can feel a bit strange to not stop and think about whether you like what you’re making, but it’s also a cool way to discover new things about your art and yourself.
I’m happy to hear you're finding value in this discussion and it’s so awesome to be part of your art adventure! Remember, there’s no single “correct” way to do art. Whether you’re mixing in a little intuition here and there or going all out it’s all about what makes sense for you and brings you joy. Keep playing around, seeing what works for you, and most importantly, enjoy the process. Thanks for sharing your journey with me!
