Many people would call this "vulgar" and "childish" But I think in art there's no such things...

Well, it's because people usually want to separate the cute(the fox) from the ugly and vulgar(the gramophone out of the butt) that I feel compelled to do these kinds of images. I want to show people that i can paint something "beautiful" in a technically skilled manner, then demonstratingly ruin that just because i can. The beauty is still there, they can't deny it, but so is also the ugly. And that's how life usually is, you have to take the good with the bad. Nobody is perfect.

Can I just say, that I'm glad you didn't just reply with "thank you" on this comment.
Cause I really was expecting to hear your opinion about this.
And you are right that life is beautiful, but it has its ugly side as well.
Your art is amazing, for as long as I have been watching you until now, here on deviant art, you have never failed to get my attention withyour works. I think they are unique, and you are exceptionally talented.
And as many times as I've said it, I freaking love your art !

I always try to reply to every comment, but it's not always that the comnents invite to discussion or explanation. Sometimes the response is overwhelming and "thank you" is all i can muster.

AWESOME!
By the way, I do love how you render your signature on your artwork. Very cool.

Thank you!
My signature? Haha... Actually, my name is just too boring and plain(here in Sweden at least) so I disguise it as a symbol instead. Though I always manage to make it crooked and ugly

No ... I think it looks cool.
One can easily make out the letter "D" and the letter "K" in it, and quite honestly, it reminds me of those little Japanese kanji stamps that artists used to denote their artwork (usually in red coloured ink).
I like it and I've noticed other artists here using a similar style.
Think of the great German artist Albrecht DΓΌrer's signature with the iconic letter A of his first name's first initial over top of the letter D of his last name's first initial : [link]

I wish I had a stamp instead. I really do.

You could have one custom made, or you could even make one yourself.
01. Just get a block of rubber (like a pink eraser or something along those lines).
02. Print out your signature in reverse on a sheet of paper.
03. Apply the sheet of paper with your signature in reverse to the block of rubber / eraser / wood / stamp.
04. Use a marker that will bleed through the paper and trace your signature so that it bleeds onto the stamp to be.
05. Remove the paper and perform any touch ups to the signature with the marker.
06. Take an X-acto knife and cut away everything that is not attached to the signature.
07. Smooth out any rough corners, etc. and be sure that the signature is able to stand several millimeters above the surrounding rubber / wood / etc. so that when you either apply paint or ink or whatever to the signature on the stamp, nothing else will transfer the ink / paint onto the canvas when you apply the custom stamp to your paintings.
Try it. I think that you could easily do so as you have already shown that you have the acumen to create / paint some incredible pieces.

Thanx! I'll look into it, though I'mm really crappy at being precise and nimble with stuff like that.
