AboutVincent M. Wales Expertise I am a writer, specializing in novels (fantasy, science fiction and others) and poetry. While I may be able to answer questions on non-fiction, my specialty is fiction. Please keep that in mind when asking questions.
Experience For four years, I taught a series of fiction writing classes in Sacramento, CA. I've written literally hundreds of essays that are online. My latest novel, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, won BEST FICTION in Fresh Voices 2006, BEST FICTION and BEST YA FICTION in the NCPA Book Awards, and placed as a finalist in BEST BOOKS 2005 (losing to Amy Tan's newest). In 2002, my novel WISH YOU WERE HERE won awards for Best Fantasy and Best Fiction/Drama in the 8th Annual SPA Awards.

but I need your opinion as you an experts , are the above behaviours can qualify me or intutive behaviours for a writer or artist ?

Answer The simple truth is that it's impossible to say. Sure, having a good imagination will help, but being a good writer is far more than just that. You can be the most imaginative person around, but if you never learn HOW to write, you won't be a good writer. Very few people have an innate ability to write well, and even they can learn more by studying the craft.
But instead of asking others' opinions, you really need to ask yourself: Do you WANT to be a writer or artist? Because it's a lot of hard work, and not something you should pursue unless it's a huge desire you can't shake.
