Paint
Painting is more than splotching colors on some paper.
Painting is expressing your feelings, your mind, and your craziness.
Your brush is your imagination, your paints are your emotions, and your canvas is your destination.
Illustrate how dark your mind is.
Show them even if they won't understand.
It does not matter if others cannot see what you do.
Paint the raging wildfires in your mind.
Paint the rough sea storms that drown your thoughts.
Art is not just one thing.
Art is many things.
When you paint, do not hide your emotions.
Spill them all over your canvas.
Art does not need to comfort anyone but you.
When you need to let it out, pick up the paintbrush.
Paint your mind.
Paint your thoughts.
Nothing truly makes sense, so don't try to make art that does.
Your art should make sense to you.
Pour the tears you could not shed into your art.
Painting is escaping your mind.
Painting is drawing with your emotions.
Painting is whatever you want it to be.
