What is Intuitive Painting?

Intuitive painting is a process of painting in layers, allowing colors, shapes, lines, images, and words to find their way onto the canvas. No previous painting experience is required.

Prompts and guidance are provided for each layer, but your Inner Knowing ultimately leads the process. The layers of paint are analogous to the layered feelings, beliefs, events, and experiences of our lives. The layering creates a beautiful tapestry of color and depth.

Finally, an image or shape will become the final layer of the painting: an ancient symbol, a spirit animal, or anything that calls to your present moment. The final canvas holds the energy of all that was discovered and experienced in the process.

The process of painting in layers offers an interaction with the canvas as a portal to aspects of you that want or need to be expressed through a kaleidoscope of color and form. Painting accesses the right hemisphere of our brain, where much of our intuitive knowing resides. It is this part of the brain that recognizes, among other things, patterns, connections, wholeness, and a sense of unity with the collective.
