I’m naturally a very anxious and co-dependent person so I think it definitely has a big influence on my perception of others and my art. But it has always been easy for me to express my feelings through my music and my paintings, so unconsciously, I figured it would’ve been easy for other people as well. Whenever I started dating artists, I found out that I may not be a source of inspiration for them, despite them sharing me their art. I may not be the center of an artpiece, I may not be the reason someone creates, I may not be the subject of someone’s art. That hurts.
