The moment you start forcing your art is the moment it starts dying.

Your art is the end result of your process.

Sometimes it is.

Not because it’s mystical.
Because you don’t actually know what will happen when you go in honestly.

That’s the point.

When you try to force the process toward a specific outcome, the work fights back.
Quietly.
Then suddenly.
