I wonder...... how about crisp lines? (might make the whole idea very impact-ful...)

Thanks for checking out my work and the nice suggestion, I'm always looking for ways to improve. I wanted to keep the background a bit subdued, as a tertiary element. Or are we speaking of the form?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the form..... I think you might consider...... your other works have a similar pattern as to what I was talking about, but it's down to you..... you're the artist...... I was just thinking it'd be more.... uhhh.... "poppy"..... you know....ergghh..... Explosive..... but you know. O__o

so it's...basically a soul >>

interesting i guess. >>

Well, depends if you like it or not. All art is subjective. This piece is up to your interpretation. If you see a soul, then hey- it's soul. That's why art kicks ass.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah unless someone does something stupid with art. Art is both subjective and objective at the same time, and when someone creates they must create something worthy of their gift of talent, and thus their art must not only be a worthy use of that gift, but must also make up for all the people who do not have that gift yet wish to create. In the end, you have a talent others wish they would have, so you must in turn honor those who can not create by creating something that is worthy of them as well.

I absolutely agree. Have a beautiful day, my friend.

Wow...This is so deep. Good for you in overcoming your depression. It's one thing to find the "light" through the relief in getting over that struggle, but then to vividly express it through this art is really beautiful. It says so much more than I could say and what is seen.

Every great artist asks the same thing to themselves. I constantly go through a cycle of creative-lapse, and during it I'll swear that "this time it's different." And it never is. I just gotta power through it and keep drawing and drawing. Then some mud sticks. Then suddenly- it all sticks. For awhile. I'm glad I could inspire you. It's important to appreciate art when you're feeling blank. Returning the favor. Happy Pixels!
