Can highly sensitive people benefit from painting abstract art intuitively?

High sensitivity, intuition, and abstract art

How does intuition help highly sensitive people?

Today, I was reading a research paper about intuition and highly sensitive people. I felt it was important to share the research, as my intuition has helped me with movement and creativity. The research paper suggests that highly sensitive people can be intuitively gifted and attentive to subtle details in their environment. Higher levels of awareness come with an intuitive ability to analyze situations, emotions, and results of actions. Researchers Klein and Klinger share that intuition helps with unstructured activities, uncertain situations, knowledge gaps, or when analytical tools are out of reach. They share that highly sensitive people can leverage their intuition to understand challenging life scenarios in their personal or professional spheres. In fact, science also correlates intuition, creativity, and high sensitivity.

Is there a link between creativity and intuition?

In my experience, intuition can support one’s creativity. I have experienced intuitive perceptions while creating abstract art and utilizing different colors. These perceptions could be mixed with my emotions and gut feelings; however, they did exist. I have created abstract art intuitively and picked colors intuitively too. Often, intuitive painting allows me to express myself as a highly sensitive person. It is not always possible to word every extrasensory or sensory perception. In such times, abstract art and intuition come to my aid.

Is there an easy way to connect to one’s intuition and creative radar?

I find setting an intention to be the easiest way to paint intuitively. Additionally, we can ask the following questions to ourselves to connect with our highly sensitive and creative radar or intuition:

1. If I allowed myself to be honest, what would I want to paint?

2. If I took a moment to connect with my inner guide, what color would I want to pick?

3. If I allowed myself to be in touch with my inner voice, what structure/form/line would I paint?

The above-mentioned questions help us connect to our inner self that is honest, our inner guide who knows where to go, or our inner voice that can help us express ourselves freely. Either way, we would be trying to form a relationship with a part of us that might not be analytical and can help us with creative answers. In my humble opinion, sometimes, creative answers can help us with perspective and new directions. So, please ask yourself these questions, if you wish to connect with your inner self or intuition. 

I spend three to four hours a week painting abstract artworks while channeling my emotions and intuition. Each time I paint, I am amazed at how much more I learn about myself and my life.
