Episode 254: Intuitive, Spontaneous, or Random?
June 5th, 2023 | 32 mins 15 secs
art, creativity, exploration, ideas, intuition, randomness, rebecca crowell, source, spontaneity
Intuition and spontaneity are important to many artists. But what about randomness? While these words are related in superficial ways, they have very different meanings in the context of art practice. Intuition and spontaneity play positive roles. Intuition can be a powerful guide and a source of new ideas --and spontaneity leads to energy and excitement. Randomness, on the other hand, tends to lead you off track and reduce the meaning and impact of your work. Today we will talk about the differences between what is intuitive, spontaneous, and random and how to recognize them in your work.

Episode 103: Intuitive Color
December 21st, 2019 | 31 mins 28 secs
art, color, intuition, painting, rebecca crowell

It is the most studied of the visual elements by experts outside of the field of art--in biology, psychology, and in cultural studies, to name a few. As artists, we may work with color in an intuitive way, or more intellectually, each of us finding a way that suits us. There is no single correct system for using color. Our individual approach is linked to our own characters and personalities, and is often a strong aspect of our personal visual voice.
