Description "clenching your fist for the ones like us
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty"-Leonard Cohen/Lana Del Rey
Sometimes, we feel that we aren't perfect, and that we aren't good enough. And that's true. Because God is only perfect.

The reference photo is here: [link] Miobi is a really amazing deviant. Go check them out, they're photos are really cool. I also tried to weave a bit of creativity in there...

also, I have a question for you guys...I've been often asked by people around me (my family, friends, etc.) why my drawings always seem so...sad? I guess? They say they don't like it, and how some of my paintings use the dripping effect kinda..strangely. What do you think? Do you guys have any suggestions?

Anyway, thanks for reading all of my randomness...
hope you enjoy! (:

I Love this one !!
and your paintings may be sad but it's not what other people think of it, other people have to see your work , you don't have to try to make art in other peoples perspective (you can when you feel it and when you want) but i want to say , just paint what you feel , those are always the best, take care

You're quite welcome!

Could you possible take a peek at my artwork? It's not that great, I turned 13 in late February (as if my age should be an excuse for the poor quality!) Oh well.
Thanks so very much!
