Description I was encouraged to post some of my paintings from class this past semester. This was pretty much the first time I've actually painted--I still need a lot of practice.

I wish this didn't look so much like Munch's painting. orz

wow.. what the hell.. you're taking a dark path haha. I like the colors meow... it actually kind of makes me sick.. orangey-yellow makes me think of food, but it looks like the people are melting....gahhh

How did you do the drippy effect on the people? There's one in particular (the one in the foreground in the mid-right area where it looks like a skull) was that on purpose?

Mmmm, cannibalism (they're being toasted over the fire like marshmallows~).

I started off taking three colors (yellow, red, and a dark brownish red which you can't really see very well) and just kinda dropped them all over the paper randomly. After that I put the paper back on the easel and flicked a lot of water all over it, which created those drips and removed some of the paint. Then I just took some black paint and looked for things that resembled eye sockets and painted in the negative space around them to form a figure (so yeah, the skull guy you mentioned was on purpose). :3

Hmm, I'm not really sure. I used to be all goth, so maybe it's my past creeping up on me. Either that or maybe I was influenced by the instructor's art (he does tons of corpses).

Goron? haha (I don't care how they spell his name, goron's cooler)

I like morbid besides this piece is really interesting. Keep going

I really like this one. Probably because I'm addicted to the color orange.
Still reminds me of Denno Coil.

Thanks! X3

Btw, I was surprised to find out I actually had seen Denno Coil before you mentioned it, but I've only seen the first episode. I've been meaning to get around to watching more. :3

: O You're so nice! Don't worry about it though--I've already got a few on my computer, and I'm currently getting the rest. X3 I've got to get around to watching Samurai 7 first anyway. :3

Nope, you didn't forget. I've just been working a lot since summer started. I'll finally get some days off after Sunday though, so that's when I'll catch up on my anime watching. X3
