So pack a bowl, light it up, and get ready to take a trip through the groovy world of cannabis-inspired art. This is gonna be one high you won't forget! 

Cannabis as a Muse for Creatives Throughout History 

Cannabis has been a fixture in the creative world for centuries. The ancient Greeks were known to use cannabis to inspire their poetry and art, and the Romantic poets of the 19th century were also fans of the plant.  It was believed that Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote his famous poem "Kubla Khan" under the influence of opium, which he used to combat his chronic pain. However, some literary critics speculate that cannabis could have been the real culprit behind his inspiration. 

Famous Writers and Artists Who Used Cannabis for Inspiration 

Now onto the beatniks of the 1950s and 60s. This group of artists and writers was known for their drug experimentation and rejection of societal norms. Many of the beatniks were fond of cannabis, and it's said that the infamous beatnik author, Jack Kerouac, wrote his most famous work, "On the Road," while high.  We can't confirm or deny this, but we know that cannabis has been used as a tool for creative inspiration for a long time. 

Musicians Who Turned to Cannabis to Get Their Creative Juices Flowing 

But it's not just writers who have turned to weed for inspiration. Musicians have also been known to use cannabis to get their creative juices flowing. Jazz legend, Louis Armstrong, was a massive fan of the plant, and he once said, "It makes you feel good, man."  

Bob Marley is another musician who famously loved cannabis. He's said to have smoked a pound of weed per week! And of course, we can't forget about the Beatles. Their song "Got to Get You into My Life" is believed to be a tribute to their love of cannabis. 

Everyday People Inspired by Cannabis to Create Art 

Cannabis has long been associated with inspiring creativity, and many artists have used the plant to unlock their imaginations. While some of our dispensary walls showcase local artwork created by artists inspired by their cannabis experiences, there are also notable artists across the US who are known to use or be inspired by the plant in their creative process. From Pablo Picasso to Vincent Gordon, these artists have created stunning works that showcase the plant's ability to enhance creativity. 

How Cannabis Enhances Creativity and Focus 

So, how does cannabis inspire creativity? Well, the THC in the plant can help to lower inhibitions and allow for freer thinking. It can also help to enhance sensory experiences, making things like music and art more vibrant and exciting. And let's remember the way it can help with focus and concentration.  Many people find that cannabis allows them to enter a flow state where they can focus intently on their creative pursuits without getting distracted. 

Finding the Right Cannabis Strain for Your Creative Goals 

So, how can you tap into your creative potential with cannabis? Well, the first step is to find the right strain. Different strains of cannabis can have other effects, so choosing one that will help you achieve your creative goals is essential. For example, a strain like Blue Dream might be a good choice if you want to relax and get in the zone. If you're looking for a burst of energy and creativity, a strain like Sour Diesel might be more up your alley. 

Setting the Mood for a Productive and Creative Session with Cannabis 

 Once you've found the right strain, setting the mood is important. Whether you prefer to work in silence or with music playing, create an environment that will help you focus and get into a creative mindset. And, of course, make sure you have plenty of snacks for when the munchies strike!
