In order to paint with spontaneity you have to do a lot of planning. Trying to inject spontaneity without proper planning is inviting disaster. My approach is to select what aspects I want to plan and generally I choose to plan composition and values. Others might choose to plan saturation and brush strokes by doing a small color sketch. Experience and preference will guide you in your search for your individual style.
