You should create art for yourself.

You should paint paintings you want to gaze at. You should pen poems you want to read. You should write songs you want to listen to.

Creating art strictly for yourself is the only sure-fire way to create something that has a chance of resonating with others.

Your perspective is unique, yes––as is your experience and taste. But, your perspective, experience and taste are not singular.

Others share in this uniqueness; and by witnessing this uniqueness at work, they will feel understood.
