I made this for the lonely artist.
The one painting in a quiet room, wondering if their work will ever be seen.
The one writing at 2AM with no replies, just a blinking cursor and a stubborn hope.
The one composing songs that echo off the walls but never seem to find ears.
This isn’t just a pep talk. It’s a reframe.
I spent the last 10 years studying the lives of the world’s most prolific and reclusive creators—Van Gogh, Banksy, Elena Ferrante, Thelonious Monk, Billie Eilish, and more. And what I found changed how I see loneliness forever.
If you’ve ever felt like an outsider in your own industry…
If you’ve ever questioned whether your voice matters…
If you’re creating in silence, unsure if it will ever echo back…
This is for you.
