Vulnerable

             You’re very vulnerable when you love someone, or when you are in love-especially as a creative being or lets say an artist. Your art is vulnerable to the subject and more than most likely  it will change. Love is a mind altering state. The way we see things changes, morphs, depending on the person it could change the way you see your own work,  art as a whole. It can change the way one approaches their creativity,expression with a sugar coating-But something I see more powerful in influencing art is heartbreak. In this situation, vulnerability can be frightfully beautiful– without that sugar coating.

 

 

Anxiety

The worst part of having a really bad mental health day/week is when you skip class or meetings, you can’t just say “oh I’ve got the flu” or “I’m physically sick” instead you’re just deemed as lazy or irresponsible when you can do nothing but cry and sleep, and I swear to god people without mental disorders need to praise the heavens because it is the most debilitating thing on the planet. There’s no cure, you live with it forever, and nobody cares because they can’t see it, so its not validated.
