Staying up all night connecting dots with the fervent passion of an unhinged genius - like a mad scientist. Notes and references strewn about the living room floor. Making art and making a huge mess.

i get obsessed with my paiNtings while i make them. they stay with me all day—i stare at the pIctures i took, overanalyze every detail, plan my next move. i dReam of them. i’ll look you in the eYes, i’ll listen to you, but i pRomise you, i’m thinking about that painting.
and then, when i feel it coming to an enD, something shifts. a new idea takes hold. i start it, juggle both for a whiLe—until the old one feels distant, duLl. or maybe it’s just that the new one has taken oVer.

Although rare, I love waking up with a burning urge to recreate something that came to me in a dream. The rush to write it down before the details fade, the hurried sketch to try and capture the essence of its subconscious form. Truly a high unlike any other, the raw and unfiltered desire to create.

Pull a joni mitchell and engage in arts that differ from your primary to inform it at a later time.
If you lean more toward visual arts try poetry, song writing, music making, acting/performances for the self, crochet, clay, claymation, videography, sound collection, whistling, discovering new sounds you can make etc.
Often when i want to create but i feel tired or uninspired i try to use still life or my surroundings— BUT If thats boring i ask myself a question and let my train of thought ramble -> connecting that rambling to my pen on paper
Honestly setting your inner critic to rest and creating things that are imperfect is actually incredible!
More often than not letting first drafts be final for a moment allows you to discover what you crave to create.

For any occasion, even a tuesday.
Get some flowers - buy em’ pick em’ - just put them in your house.
Take some out of the bouquet before they die and hang them up to dry so you can keep them forever.
Not only does a nice flower arrangement brighten up the room but it makes your life feel a little more romantic.
