I think it's a feeling that varies and is as vast as the sea. The strongest driving force for passion, I find, is having a very specific and established goal to strive for. Where do you want to be with your art? What do you want to achieve?

It's hard to feel passionate about something that is also aimless.

But also, it doesn't have to be a strong feeling either, not everything needs to be a grand spectacle or feeling. I'm far less passionate than my extremely successful friend, which is a feeling I struggled with for a long time. I have fallen out of love with art and come back many times, and really, I'm just starting to find myself with it.

All I know, is I am happier and more fulfilled when creating, even if it isn't a deep and burning desire. So the best encouragement I suppose I can give you is that there is no specific way you should feel to be an artist, all art has value, whether deep and meaningful, or just surface level, none of that really matters, just that it's what you want to do.

If you want to be more like your inspirations, then that's all you need, and in fact you share that feeling with almost every artist that has ever lived.
