More art! Less... not art.
10 years ago
Right! So I'm still drawing and working on Scraps, just been dealing with some personal issues that have left me a bit listless, so it's been sloowwwww going.
But I won't let that keep me down! I'm getting myself back on track!
I'm too stubborn to stay down for too long anymore.
So draw draw draw I shall, and I'm keeping hold of my inspiration!
I like to make people smile!
And I seem to be able to do that sometimes with drawing, so that's enough for me!
Now, I really think creativity is a weird thing - it's about as erratic as I am, if not more!
As much inspiration as I draw from bringing joy to those around me, I must confess, there are often times I want to draw something I rather doubt would have that effect.
Why? Well, I am terribly fascinated by horror, and sometimes I just feel the urge to delve into that and explore it artistically.
Go figure that this usually results in art that seems to make most people terribly uncomfortable.
I just draw and write this stuff! But I often get the feeling it results in insinuations I'd much rather avoid.
Perhaps it can be difficult to separate art from artist, as they tend to be so closely intertwined.
And really, I try to keep most of what I present to the public family friendly.
Surprises are fun! But not when they're unpleasant ones.
Clicking through a bunch of cute and fuzzy art, and suddenly finding a monster hiding in the midst of that might be a little off-putting.
So perhaps an alternate account is in order once I have enough to warrant posting.
Has anyone else wrestled with this problem? Have you ever wanted to create something completely unlike your usual fare, but then decided better of it, or simply kept it to yourself, so as not to jar your watchers with something abruptly different?
I mean sure, 'D' is pretty strange, but that's about as far off track as I'm willing to go XD
