I like that the artists all share a similar sense of intuition and purpose in their art. They cannot necessarily predict what comes next, but they know it will match/exceed their aesthetic aspirations. Planning and research are all not ignored, but at the moment of creation control released in a way that allows instinct to take part of the process. This quality has been critiqued as random or easy, particularly in Pollock, but I think instead that it reveals an artistic certainty and a level of inner trust that is enviable.
