I can't figure out why I drew this, I just can't put my finger on it....

bahhhh i doodled a few minutes and i kinda tried things, didnt worked out in the end! here you go

crappy immitation of the mona

It hurt so much worse than I expected it, way deep inside to be alone again, and it took only one look to see why. I should never have been so silent in my support when she mentioned planning to get one when she'd found out. I should have said something... but I didn't. It haunts my nightmares, plagues me in the day all to know I could have said... something. But I did nothing, just as I can now do nothing but have my nightmares and shoulder the burden of silence.

I feel like eating watermelon at band camp.

I decided to enter art school :) I just passed the first test: Human Figure!
Tomorrow: Sculpture, paitning and photography! D:

As the title states. Imagery like this is not shocking to me.
Personally I find that the majority of the public enjoy extreme gore, sexual deviance, and death. Just think about what we view.

Gore and death: Hostel, Saw, 300, 28 weeks later, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, CSI series, OZ, The Sopranos, etc.
Sexual Deviance: Law and order SVU, The Tudors, Just porn alone is a HUGE market and includes many themes that would blow others minds.

The news we all watch holds a cache of horror and fear.

And we LOVE IT. We want more of it. Then again, its apart of our nature as much as love, healing, and creation are. Well... don't show love making on TV because of children (Rather be parents). Remember the 80s? Some shows were essentially softcore porn.
I find that gore and extreme situations can also be utilized to make beautiful art and cinema.
Ichi The Killer, once past all the insanity, rape, and gore. Was a really good movie, and had some very intelligent ideas behind it on top of beautiful Imagery. Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance as another one. VIDEODROME, SUSPIRIA, The Box, etc. All works of art.

Then you have the drawn artists like Junji Ito, Hans Bellmer, Surhiro Maruo, Kage, etc.

So these vile themes can be used past the newest shitty horror movie. I think the only people who find such shocking are those not ever exposed, or those predisposed to be shocked by modes of thinking (ex: religion, culture, etc.)


SO AFTER ALL THAT BULLSHIT I JUST WROTE, WHAT IS SHOCKING TO ME?

A world where we do not kill and hurt each other, a world where people loved each other, societies of people built on selflessness and community, a world where all are truly equal.

But this is merely long-dead-romantic-rhetoric made for people to impale themselves upon. Such a utopia is fantasy for now.

I officially disqualify myself from this contest because I could not come up with an image that expresses what I find shocking. Sorry for making you read all of that.
