Today is my birthday, and the gift I’m giving myself is opening my creative flow again, because I can feel that it’s time to step back into my gift.
I’ve missed it deeply. Missed the quiet obsession, missed that deep, creative energy building in my body. Lately, that feeling has returned and it’s impossible to ignore, like something in me needs to come out through creation.
I’ve been longing to create skull art again, to work with bones, to bring life back into pieces that have been waiting patiently.
It finally feels like they’ve been calling for me again. I needed time away. But now, so many ideas, so many works just waiting to be awakened.
The timing finally feels right again. So don’t be surprised if you start seeing me and my skull art appear here again.
Everything has its time. Even waiting. Even rest. Sometimes you don’t have the energy, the desire, the space, the time, or the feeling to create, and that’s okay. Then you pause, because creativity cannot be forced. It can be pushed, but it’s never created for the right reasons that way. And a pause doesn’t mean something is gone forever.
Sometimes it’s a short breath. Sometimes it’s years.
And sometimes… it comes back.
And when it does, you listen. / Petra
