It's been a month or even longer since I've touched canvas or painted or written anything really good. I used to get ideas and paint and write much more frequently than now. I look back at my old work and feel like they are SO much better than the art I do now. Feel like nothing inspires me these days, totally have no muse to work on.
I know this could just be an 'artist's block' phase, but is it possible to completely lose touch with being inspired, is it possible that I may never paint or write as well as I did again?

Only a month? That's nothing to worry about. Your inspiration will come back. When it does you will be better than ever even if you are a different artist than you were before. I know someone who lost her muse for several years and when she noticed how excited I was about my art she 'caught it' and now is selling in galleries at large prices and doing great stuff. Maybe it'll work for you...Check out my stuff on line and see if it helps!

What you need is some cross-pollination. If you want to be inspired to paint again you should indulge in some other arts. Go to a concert or a play. Take up dancing maybe. Read a good book. Let other artists inspire you for a change!
Good luck.

Don't stress about it. It will return but you need to keep your hands in practice.
If original work is not working try the other way: copying.
Pick a favorite painting and make a copy as good as you are able to.
In the mean time I wil mail you your inspiration back. I'm sure they have it here in 'The Lost & Found Emporium'.

Trust me , it always happens like that..its not about lossing inspirations, its just a way to tell you to look in a different angel or perception towards all the things that moves around you. Intuition,ideas,subject matters comes to you in a different ways that we cannot predict. So be patience, open all your senses and hope that u will get the "thing" that u want.
Success

Well I tend to have the hardest time finding things to be inspired by. So now I let the inspiration come to me and those turn out to be my best paintings! Just look around you find that hook that gets you going! Sometimes it can be right under our nose we just try so hard to find it we tend to let it pass us by. So don't try so hard to where you get fraustrated just keep your eyes opened and it'll come to you. =) Hope i hepled you out!

It IS possible.
But you seem to be very passionate about painting, that I don't think you can loose your inspiration so easily.
Just give it time, and it will come to you :)
Good luck
