On the matter of drugs and art, it boils down to this for me (and I promise to elaborate when I finally get the chance):
An artist who uses drugs and/or relies on them to spark his/her creativity so no different than an athlete who uses and/or relies on performance enhancement drugs to boost his/her athletic prowess. Unl
The real issue for me, however, is the danger of over-reliance that comes with using drugs to enable one's creative output. If you just so happen to create all your best works while being under the influence of some drug(s), then chances are you will continue using said drug(s) in order to keep up the output of quality work. At this point, you've relinquished your ability and power to create quality work, consciously and freely.
It's important to learn how to "command" and/or spark creativity consciously, as opposed to unconsciously because of being under the reliance of drugs. Remember, creativity is what led to the first bow and arrow. Creativity is the reason why we humans are the apex species on this planet; it is the cornerstone of our evolution. Simply stated, creativity is a very powerful thing. Don't go $**$#%# with it with drugs.
