Description  A bit of remote viewing with a bit of rock music!
People die around me, I don't care about that anymore, I feel nothing, I want life and to grow up to be a plain, normal adult, I want a family, but above all I just want to enjoy myself like everybody else. This was the last monster I have to face. If I go there, and beat this... I'll get further than ever before and never again will I fall in such a darkness

I remember this feeling when I was a kid, dreaming of some dark evil suking me in, folowing me, I was always running away from it. That thought disappear from me a long time ago.
So I was listening to rock music, specifically Koorn so I made something that kinda looks like their cover albums.  I think this should be dedicated to Brian Welch.

WHY CAN'T EVERYBODY BE AS COURAGEOUS AS THIS LITTLE GIRL?

Well I hope it is that was the intention and the message is about facing your fears. Like I said the the person below, "There is a secret at the end of the tunnel so she has to face the monster first and get over her fears. After she does, she'll become a god. The monster is more scared of her than you think"   I made this drawing in a very weird time of my life, where people had funerals and they would transmit to me the feelings.  I made this drawing in a very weird time of my life, where people had funerals and they would transmit to me the feelings. I also was in one of those dark moods that got me creative for dark art. I consider this the point of my transition to a new way of thinking, a jump in the right direction if you will. I felt like really cleansing some of the bad stuff through this. Also, remember what I told you about letting my mind rendering stuff out for me? This was 99% done from my mental image of the meditation I had of the feeling and place I wanted to convey. I used no references.

I believe the part about your soul, I can already see it! Same here, in a ambivert fashion.

I guess this little girl has a really strong goal that keeps her moving. In a place so creepy even trees bleed.

I wonder how she will hold her calm when she reaches that monster that's in front of her. I don't think she has many chances, honestly.

There is a skirt secret at the end of the tunnel so she has to face the monster first and get over her fears. After she does, she'll become a god. The monster is more scared of her than you think!

Nice concept.

Also, remote viewing?  How did you manage to do that?

Thanks and sorry for the late reply!

Well kida, I tried out remote viewing for real with a friend and first time results were accurate but the next time I tried it it was complete fail! As for the picture, It was kinda more like a meditation state, like a vision while I was doing it. I think this one came from he inside! I want to do more like this.

The mind is amazing!

How does it work, do you just "imagine" what he was most likely doing?
Or were you trying to use extra-sensory perception?

So I am wondering now, what is it that you specifically like about this picture and how do you feel about it? I'm doing a study and I'd like to see how you interpret this.

Btw you travel around the US, that's pretty cool! I'd like to travel to the us and Asia to, maybe in a year or 2, if I have money>

sylessae In reply to Tobyfredson [2016-12-28 21:42:08 +0000 UTC]

Well, you've very clearly a sense of depth in the image by giving it a foreground, and a background.

The way the road curves, and the supporting lines that you've used to create the rest of the scene/hallway/path really draw me into the upper right where the portal/dimension/warpy bit is.

Not to mention, you've created a stellar composition by having both the girl, and the opposite end of the path stay true to the rule of thirds. It just flows very well, and the black and white gives it an emotion that I'm not sure color would convey very well. A darkness, I suppose.

It is simple, but has so many great composition qualities.

hobo-cat In reply to Tobyfredson [2016-06-15 20:02:57 +0000 UTC]

i can relate to it cause of anxiety.

it  makes me feel anxious and gloomy . and the whole situation / style is kind of hectic, not so soft, which makes it even more intense imo. the colorpallette adds to that feeling too! ( sorry , my english sucks sometimes)

Thanks a lot mate! 
I don't get these kinds of vibes very often but I want to actually make something a lot more creepier, although I'm not really into horror themes nowadays but it would seem nice to get back in to it and explore it agian

Do you still listen to korn?

Man, that's awesome. I feel like you've improved all of a sudden  in the way of expressing emotions. I feel that your drawings are charged with something and there is another person who watched and told me instantly there is a charge to them. Great! Put those frackin'colours!!

Tobyfredson In reply to HectiColor [2016-05-27 18:15:56 +0000 UTC]

Not yet... Actually, I'm in that kind of negative state again, and you, know problem, etc so I felt a strange need to do and finish this so I stayed till late. Although I'm pretty much dead about my feelings I can't help feeling a bit angry about it. Can't wait to try concept for your book now, I think realistic style characters should fit it which is something I'll be aiming for.

SCARY! Is that an angel chained to a tree? I feel like the girl is just gonna ignore the angel and go have tea and biscuits with the monster.

I used to draw creepy art in school (my dark phase), and people always said it looked like Korn album art! I also loved Korn at that time XD

THIS IS BLOODY GOOD! DRAW MORE!! I love the reds, makes it even more ominous...the bloooooood! and red eeeyyyeee!

Tobyfredson In reply to Astral-Chan [2016-05-27 17:48:48 +0000 UTC]

The angel is pretty much dead since blood is draining from her so yeah she's going to ignore it and head for the monster. She on a quest for herself, not for others. That moment is going to have tea in the hospital.

You did? Interesting, I would like to see it! Do you still love koorn now?

I was totally meditaning when I did this, made it completely from intuition and my feelings. What does the picture mean to you and do you relate?

Astral-Chan In reply to Tobyfredson [2016-05-29 17:14:15 +0000 UTC]

I still like Korn, I prefer their older albums.. 

Can I relate to this? Perhaps. 

I can imagine this as a state of mind, sometimes you feel like you're in a dark place. But this image doesn't give me the idea that the girl wants to go get rid of/defeat the monster. To me, it's a grey area. No darkness is ever quite that simple. I think the monster is intriguing and the girl is conflicted, whether to embrace this darkness or not. It's like reaching the point of no return and that monster may just be her escape from life itself, or at least a twisted guide to somehow endure life and see it in a whole different way...maybe in a negative way, but it's still a way to cope. Darkness isn't scary, darkness makes us stronger...sometimes. //runs away to hide in cave!

Funny that, it seems to me you are leaving your cave quite a lot lately... You changed and I'm proud of you! I don't think you'll lose to the demon anymore from now on and so won't I!

So you did not relate the way I expected you to but you actually described yours a little, interesting. You got the last part right, you understand it seams. Sometimes you need to embrace it to step further. She won't become darkness btw. The monster is just an obstacle like any other.
