Intuitive.... I can't find the words to describe the feeling when working like this except maybe free and trusting.  There is such a wonderful freedom in trusting your own intuitive knowledge...moving through quickly responding to each new mark, shape, color, etc..,  I was challenging myself to working without color in just black and white.  With that plan I began ....the music was on, the brushes danced across the canvas and....then oops color. 

Also,  have been working with this new size canvas.  The standard 24" x 48" x 1.5" is what I have previously been using.  I got to where I was feeling as if I wanted a little more height to the 48" width.  So, I've had these 30" x 48" canvases custom made  and have found that I LOVE this new found size.
