I forget the name of this famous artist but...

Possible trigger:

...he used to splash animals blood over his paintings and people loved them(!) And I think he would sometimes put the blood on himself as well, and then basically roll around on the canvas as part of his technique too(!!??)

The artist does not need permission to create but if you feel it may be detrimental to your mental health then it's probably not a good idea. On the other hand I'm sure some people who keep journals for mental health reasons, write some pretty confronting private thoughts in them as well, so I guess it's up to you in the end, friend.
