Oh, thanks so much, my friend!
Yeah, I've heard about people who uses heroin instead of eating food and they have to make money to be able to buy new doses of heroin, which can be really hard without having a job. They can do almost everything to get a small amount of it. That is really sad.

Yeah I hear on the radio, they'll even steal from their own children's piggy-banks to get the money for a fix
You're very welcome my Kurt-lookalike-friend

Omg, this is so amazing. I love it! I can't even explain how awesome this is. I love seeing updates from you(:
What was your inspiration for this? Just what you put into the description, or was it something more specific?

Thanks so much! Glad to hear that!
I've been watching a lot of prison photos, where people are locked behind bars and I've been watching movies about drug addicts that says that heroin is like prison etc.

Thanks so much! 
The inspiration is a bunch of prison photos where persons are being locked behind bars. And I came up with the concept after watching movies about drugs where people says that drugs is like a prison etc.

Oh, that's really neat. It's good to see that you draw inspiration from real life events and you aren't just cooped up in "your own little world"

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks, man! That's great! Weed is good! But in a small amount. It could be used for medication. The music was much better in the sixties and seventies than now because the musicians smoked weed! That explains that it seems to be good stuff

Oh, I see. Sad story, my friend. We all have our problems, but the quote "what doesn't kill you, just makes you stronger" is very true. I've got my own problems, which I bury in my art. Instead of talking about them, I draw my feelings and thoughts. I same the same as you: the art gives my life a sense... including music
Keep up your artwork, buddy!

Oh.. I see! Same here. Right now I'm working with a project where I draw pictures in the theme "Life and death", including: war, environment pollution, starvation and poverty, drugs etc. etc.
I'm almost done with the project and I will make more twisted and sick stuff
