Your art does not care if you have other things to do.
It is not interested in your excuses or your explanations.
It just wants to be made.
Your art is waiting for you to bring it to life.
And you are the only one who can do it.
No one else has your eye, your ear, your voice, or your touch.
No one else has your perspective or your experiences.
Only you can make your art your way.
That is why you are called to do it.
That is why it hurts so bad to walk away from it and to try to ignore or deny it.
But you are scared.
You are afraid that it is all a lie, that this work is not important, that you are not good enough, and that no one cares.
Do it anyway.
Make art like your life depends on it.
Maybe it does.
