I truly do not know.
Maybe I would lean toward intuition because I didn’t take up a paintbrush until I was 25 years old. Although my skill was so very bad, compositions were always unique. I still do not know how to draw, and I can barely paint. There are so many thousands, perhaps a few million, painters more able and “artistic”. Take this famous quote from Hokusai. Who knows where I’ll be at 110:)

I have been in love with painting ever since I became conscious of it at the age of six. I drew some pictures I thought fairly good when I was fifty, but really nothing I did before the age of seventy was of any value at all. At seventy-three I have at least caught every aspect of nature–birds, fish, animals, insects, trees, grasses, all. When I am eighty I shall have developed still further and I will really master the secrets of art at ninety. when I reach a hundred my work will be truly sublime and my final goal will be attained around the age of one hundred and ten, when every line and dot I draw will be imbued with life.
