I'm particularly intrigued with the one with the dark background. What software do you use and is there a particular story behind the drawing?
I'm using Krita atm. And yeah, there's always a story behind a drawing. But I hope you don't mind if I decide to keep it private :">.

Indeed we are! But that is what helps us improve, contrary to what others say. If we see flaws, or criticize our own work, it's a surefire sign we can do better. Of course, our best work no longer becomes our best.

Thanks! It's the first time I've ever tried that shading technique. Time consuming, but worth it in the end.

Sorry for spam lol. I LOVE photography, especially macro. Some pics from my travels, Venice, Hamburg, America and some locally. Photography is one thing that whenever I have some energy for life, I want to go and do.
Wow, these are STUNNING!! :O The padlocks, the bird flying near the building and the path are my favorites but they're all amazing

Well it's pretty hard for me to paint and draw happy things...Art helps me to express my emotions and prevents me a little from self harm.

I've not posted on this thread before, but it's time I came out. Yes, I am a rock painter! I hope this doesn't negatively effect the way you look at me :pfff:

The left is inspired from Junji Ito's Tomie and what is the other drawing inspired from? Great art also! I envy the artists on here... It makes me a little jealous that I don't have the skills to do it.

Yeah my painting looks similar to the one from Junji Ito but I never thought about that. The picture describes how I feel when I'm overthinking. I close my eyes, there are too many voices and bad memories in my head. It's just a mess. I can't think straight. I'm fading away and in the end I feel empty. I painted the 2nd picture when I was in psychiatry. It's made out of red wool, structure paste and acrylic paint. I always have the feeling that everyone is watching me even when I'm alone. It's like it would be a part of me. That's why I wanted to create a flesh kind of look. I was inspired by the paintings of the swedish artist "Kim Jakobsson". He's a genius. Everyone can paint. Just try it. When I paint I don't think about it too much. Just let your hands do the job. Listen to great music that will express your feelings. When I paint I mostly have the impulse that wants to break out like anger or fear. And the important thing is: Don't compare your art with others even if it's not that easy. It will take some time. Francisco de Goyas art and story is also really inspiring. He was criticised for his dark paintings because he was different and he saw what was really going wrong in the society.

I love this thread. You talented bunch! I'm no pro at all but I think it's cool to draw whatever comes to mind or to copy stuff regardless of skill. I do quite like my skull though.
