I’m not inspired by or drawing based on any other media, I barely consume any sort of media beyond music. What I make is based only on my own thoughts and life and what I enjoy making, all of it has personal contexts. it’s inevitable that will end up having similarities to something else at some point, but immediately making assumptions and explicit comparisons it’s nothing else than a surface level insight is just a bit of a shallow way of consuming art in general.
I never had the tv channels to view American shows, nor did I ever watch anything at all with audio online as I didn’t want to be heard what I was doing, and if I wore headphones then I couldn’t hear properly what my mum was doing only music when I was alone , all the way up until 2019 when I moved out so no popular media was significant to me, everything I’ve been compared to I’m only aware of due to being compared to it. I grew unschooled geographically and socially isolated upbringing weird enough that no therapist has known what to say about it and now I live in a bush camp hovel with no running water for the last couple years, on disability pension on account of being deemed incurably mental. I’m not drawing based on other people’s ideas or trauma depictions I’m actually just like that (and ever since I started puberty go through random phases of compulsively wanting to draw and write about necrophillia, it’s not an Alfred alfer reference like people think it is, I did not know what that was until recently)
No annoyance in writing this just thoughts because it’s been happening more often, love you all lovely people
