There are days when we stare at our work and feel nothing. No spark, no tune, no urge to create. We watch others make art and think, “They still have it.” Then we turn away and sit in the quiet.
Sometimes the soul just needs to breathe. We’ve given, we’ve felt, we’ve emptied ourselves onto too many canvases. Art isn’t a switch—it’s a heartbeat that slows down when it needs to heal.
No artist burns forever. Even silence has rhythm. Maybe the pause is part of the art—those hidden spaces where the spirit quietly refills. We’re not lost. We’re rebuilding.
And when the next wave comes, we’ll know it’s real again. Not forced. Not calculated. Just human.
That’s what International Artist Day (October 25) reminds us of: not the noise or the show, but the quiet courage to start creating again.
