Description Essentially, this is vent art. I tried to disguise it as a vaguely character-driven drawing of my water girl, Talise (as seen in The Element of Water [link] ), since I don't like looking my problems in the face through doing art, but... yeah, this is vent art. As much as I resist it, though, I must admit there has been a bit of a release.


"Oh my love, don't forget me
When I let the water take me
So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow..."

Very well done... I think that it conveys the sense of anger, frustration, and furry that you might not have been able to capture the same why if it wasn't slightly venty... A very powerful piece thank you for sharing it with us.

Oh my goodness, this is so...intense! The raw emotion in this is mind-blowing. The form of her entire frame is just so beautiful and yet frightening in her fury, beautiful song to accompany this piece and the way you drew her face is a perfect blend between animalistic uncontrol and yet some form of beauty

I literally had to and stare at this for a few seconds before I could move again. This is exquisite! I understand not wanting to face one's problems through art, but this situation produced something beautiful. The anatomy, the colors, the water splashes, the teeth, THE HAIR! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

Trounced In reply to Torsle [2011-11-27 20:04:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I understand getting really emotional doing vent art. I'd still encourage you to do it, even if it's not art you'd upload to DA. If it helps you release your emotions, it may still do what you need vent art to do.

Bahahaha, my vent art is always a pile of emotional goo--but this, now this is lovely, and I can feel the emotion behind it. Fantastic detailing on the skin and water as well. C:

Trounced In reply to RubyTheTigress [2011-11-27 20:13:56 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! That means a lot! Vent art is funny, it seems like it can be hit or miss in the sense of making art you'd share, but piles of emotional goo seems like it would be more useful in getting out your emotions. Either way, all that matters is that it's cathartic for the artist!
