Description
This is the kind of drawing that I like people to draw their own conclusions from ^_^It was originally an ink drawing for Inktober, but I wanted to add some color to it. Which I might as well do, since Inktober is over lmao.

The grim realization that if I looked like that I'd take selfies too...

This is so cool! I know there's probably a deep message about technology, but I like to think her cellphone is inhabited by a monster creature that gets cranky whenever she doesn't pay enough attention to it

Sure! I'm swapping around some hard drives, so I don't have access to this drawing atm, but I'll make an HD wallpaper as soon as that's sorted out :3

My guess is that this is a girl battling a mental disorder like some form of OCD where she is obsessed with selfies and is beginning to not see any family or friends because all she cares about is snapchat (like the girls in my class)

So true, everyone in my generation is obnoxious and narcissistic. All they care about is themselves and enjoy being a nuisance!

Without taking away a stereotypical Luddite message, it looks like it's about being consumed by a vanity, selfishness, and egocentrism produced by social media. The title's a pretty good hint.

This piece is a deep one. Oneethe surface, a confident and happy girl having fun and taking selfies. On the deeper side the darkness and toxicity of today's selfie culture.

I really like this piece because it explores a deeper perspective. You're very talented, obviously. You have a deeper insight to your art. This piece show it. Ignore the haters, you're a great artist asd you should draw what speaks to you. Your art is amazing. Have a good day.

The phrase 'selfie culture'. Is real. Oh no.

I thought that she was just having fun and taking a selfie, she looks so powerful and confident. And that the black monster thing was the toxicity of the internet

I believe i see a metaphor in here. Like the phone represents how technology controls us nowadays. But i love this piece! Keep it up and keep going!

Seriously, this stupid 'this is what millenials are, this is what social media entails, all teens are like this AND thAyRE sElLiNg THARE SAWLLSZZZZZZZZZZ' thing is bad enough coming from forty-year olds, but from this site, of all places, should not being doing this.
1. It's an unfunny stereotype of people for people born in a certain time
2. it's not effective in any way, the people who are like this probably just scoff at their screen, and people who aren't have to be bothered by it
3. It's so bloody repetitive, because
4. every old suit who does it thinks he's so deep and meaningful, when he's really just another disconnected idiot giving an image of elder figures as clueless morons who can't be confided in.

My take: The culture of social media and 'selfies' can sometimes be an all consuming monster.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the most overdone repetitive 'message' of this entire decade

You can support social media and phones and whatnot, and still see the negative aspects of it. Social media/internet can affect people's lives in not-so-healthy ways, but that doesn't automatically mean that it's bad. It just depends on the person and how much they use it.

I'm not certain you see my point. What I'm saying is, we've all already heard the scare tactics and things about this so many times that the subject is dry and dead. Being sensible about this subject counts for nothing, because it's been worn out.
Another thing I hate is people acting as if 'social media' refers to one thing, rather than referring to every site in which people can interact with others, I.E. 65% of all sites on the internet. It's a stupid term, and it honestly doesn't refer to anything in particular(except Facebook, which we know is long dead anyway).
What I hate isn't negative views of the internet. It's cookie-cutter views of the internet.

i don't feel like you've actually ever been on 4chan or tumblr because tumblr is a bunch of kids and 4chan is a bunch of white supremacists and if you think "sjws" are worse than people advocating for genocide you really are fucking stupid.
