A model for creative problem‐solving specific to the creation of art is proposed. The development of the Osborn‐Parnes and Isaksen‐Treffinger models are reviewed. An adaptation of the Osborn‐Parnes/Isaksen‐Treffinger models is presented. The Model for Idea Inception and Image Development in Art is presented with five primary stages: Associative Exploration, Problem Parameter Exploration, Multiple Focus Exploration, Primary Focus Exploration and Refinement. Transitional stages are delineated. The significance and implications of the model for artists, students and instructors in art education are discussed.
