It’s when something so important happens… something just, life changing.

It’s a single moment when a thousand voices start up in a powerful chorus and you’re just drowned in them. You can’t keep em straight, you can’t try and control it you simply let it pick you up and carry you away.

And for a moment you think you’re crazy. You’re almost CERTAIN that you’re crazy.

But you know better.

This is what it means to be an artist.

This is what it means to breathe life into nothingness and paint on an invisible canvas.

This is what it is to CREATE. For a moment to simply feel like a God.

And it’s exactly what it means to be so humbled by that fact… to know what it is to be a creator.

To believe in something so much… with all of your heart and soul that you simply can’t contain it in yourself anymore. You have no CHOICE but to express it. The medium doesn’t matter. The end result doesn’t matter. Nothing matters but the EXPRESSION.

This is what it means to be an artist.

This is what it means to harness a force never mentioned but that has been a driving force of mankind for longer then they remember.

This is what it means to be INSPIRED.

This is what it means to be driven by something more then yourself.

To be both the creator and the believer all at once.

To be great and to be humble all at once.

To be yourself, and yet something so much MORE all at once.

This is what it means to be an artist.

Before anyone says anything, i want you to think about that. and to think about when you make something. think about when you simply HAVE to make something. When it can't wait another day, hour, minute, second....

There is a magic in art.

It's important to know and respect that.

I'd have to agree :D It doesn't always happen, but at times you just have to create. ^_^ I'm good at putting stuff off for a while sometimes... depends on what it is, but sometimes it happens. A few day's back I had to put off what I was doing to finish an idea I had.

When I get working I get in to a state where I'm more ready to work on other stuff too. I produce art in batches lol. ^_^

What happened for you may I ask? ^_^

:iconaneirin-aryon:
Oh yes I do know..... ^_^ All last night I laid in bed thinking about stuff to draw, paint, and write! :O
