A black ichor surrounds me, pouring from my eyes.
The manifestation of my own blindness and ignorance.

I was in a really bad mood when I drew this, yeah... Parts of mfm put me in a bad mood. My sketchbook got ruined, and after the disappointment of losing all the paper I JUST ordered and having to scrounge for the piecemeal assortment of spares I had, I already felt a little defeated. I didn't have the energy to talk to anyone or do much, which made it gradually worse. I was pissed at myself for not actually trying to have fun at the con, but I couldn't pull it together. My social skills are so bad(ignorance) that I cant operate unless I'm really concentrating on it. Me and Razerz were moping around together a lot of the con. You made us feel better though =D
I'm better now though. School is back again, so Im busy as all hell, but doing good.

How very deep and emotional. I really get a feeling of being trapped here, and the fact that it seems to be crawling up you as well as pouring out of your eyes adds to the haunting presence of the piece. I also like how the ichor is well defined up close to you, but becomes abstract towards the edges of the paper...it draws the eyes in.
Do you mean how the thin little bubbles kind of come out? I could tell it needed something around it as I was working on it. I decided I would make the "tainted" feel of the picture kind of radiate outwards, make it surround and haunt more, so I put in circles to keep with the liquidy theme. It worked out pretty well, but I wished I hadn't been so angry and rushed when I worked on it. I could've made it look a little better.
Yep, those are exactly what I mean...they really give the piece a whole eternalness to it as you move away from the center of the picture. And hey, vent artwork isn't supposed to be pristine, it's just to get things out on paper. I certainly hope it helped you out during the rough time, and sorry MFM was rough on ya!
