Description
I find inspiration in many places. Art, music, sky, emotions, patterns on bathroom floor tiles.This particular piece was indeed inspired by a pattern I saw on a bathroom floor tile. I saw this creature, sketched it and created a world around it. I created this piece in one sitting and surprisingly quickly, too. It only took me a little over five hours to finish it. It actually made me feel like I'm doing something wrong because usually I really take my time. :'D But the way it turned out speaks otherwise, at least to me.
But yeah, skulls, deer, space. Some of my favourite things. This was a really fun piece to do.
I hope you like it!
The title sucks btw.

Awesome background. And the creature is just epic!

Wow, I'm not the only one who's got bathroom tiles that look a lot like otherworldly creatures, huh? I've never drawn them though. Trust me, you're at a level of skilful that even rushed jobs can look good. Beautiful scape of galactic space, and the comet-like trail of the deer's hooves kind of make it appear to be skidding on snow or ice, and that coupled with it being a deer in the night sky makes this picture strangely reminiscent to the Night Before Christmas. Throwing in the skull and it's almost got a Nightmare Before Christmas vibe, just without the twisted, Burton-style wack factor. Nice job, it's cool how you draw inspiration from so many things!

I actually draw the things I see very rarely. Only when it's particularly inspiring (or when it has skulls) I grab a pen and doodle it and see if it'll go anywhere.
Anyway, thank you very much! This work wasn't really rushed, I just worked on it with such intensity that I managed to finish it faster than I thought. Also, the background was really quick to do. I think I may have learned some stuff so I can just do it without much flailing around thinking "how do I dooo thisss".

I am so glad I am not the only one who draws things from weird patterns in things. You have no idea...
One of my characters came from a bathroom tile...and another from the weird stucko-stuff on walls.
Buh, that aside. Your piece here is super fun~! I love all the pretty stars and light. I could go on, but I feel like I'm rambling already. Haha.

I see all kinds of stuff everywhere but I don't draw them as often as I'd like. Sometimes, like this time, I simply have to. My older piece "Wise" was also inspired by a stain on a wall.
But thank you!

I used to take pictures all the time so I would remember to draw the weird things later. God I miss having a camera...
I had to look up the piece again, but I remember when you posted I guess I just missed the comments or I think I would have said something about it. *laugh*

Thanks!

So cool, so pretty. ~
I just like the idea of a creature as a shooting star, and it seems to be headed for a galaxy. Makes you wonder.
I can barely believe where you said the inspiration came from. It's like inspiration can come from anywhere, any time.

Oh yes, inspiration is everywhere, just keep your eyes and ears open.
