Abstract art listens to sensitive people

As we all know, listening is an important skill. It makes one feel heard and understood.

As an empath, I tend to attract chronic talkers that can drain me and make me feel unheard or overwhelmed. Hence, I am always seeking people who truly value the skill of listening. I consider myself to be a good listener, and I often seek for people who can be listeners for me too.

I don't have such expectations from art. I know that art listens to me.

My canvas and paints always listen. Often, they support me to listen to myself.

A few days ago, I had a significant HSP (highly sensitive person) experience. I knew that I could not share it with everyone. I needed a human being who could fully understand and relate to me. I wasn't able to narrow down to the person who could listen and understand my experience.

More importantly, I had to process the feelings and thoughts that were weighing me down.

So, I picked up my canvas and paints. I let my art be my listener.

When my art heard me :)

(P.S - This is what came up for me, and I love it!)

My experience was intimate, insightful, and beautiful in its way.

I know that art may or may not be able to replace a human touch.

However, it can provide a band-aid to one's wounds.

Isn't that worth something?

-3, 2, 1, Cheers,
