Description I will never forget your scream as I threw you to the ground.
One last kiss on cold, cold lips…
One last touch deep inside you.
I will always remember your eyes and the way they stared out from your dead shell.
A blunt stick through your heart.
The dirt remains imbedded under my every nail
reminds me when I filled your mouth with dirt.
I watch you disappear under the ground.
I lay you down to sleep

If you will never love me
You will never love anyone.



This was an image that kind of shat itself out from no where while I was trying to draw something good… I have had my mind full of ideas and I’ve written down words or descriptions to match un-existent artwork but I just can’t draw anything right today. I call this piece more of a rough sketch finish unlike most of my other work it’s just different in producing style….

This piece to me is pretty horrible to me… I don’t like much about it only the idea behind it really and I guess it’s a little moody which is what I wanted. I know there are many fucked up bits here but I find all its mistakes go nice with the grunge and messy handwriting somehow…
I was not going to submit it at all but I liked how it scrubbed up in Photoshop and with every image I draw sometimes shit like this comes out but these kind of pictures are good for me when I can’t draw anything …
because these images kind of warm me up to get back into the drawing flow of things making it more of a chance ill find a drawing track and be able to pop out a few more each better than the next.
It’s happened before… so let’s hope.

In the end there are parts I like and parts I don’t like I just feel like I haven’t put nearly as much effort into this as I have with the pile of recent artworks I have produced lately… so it is a shame but this kind of stuff happens.

Don’t be too harsh on the criticising,
Like I said I know all its faults.
Thankyou
Enjoy

This is GORGEOUS. I love the texture to it and the deep, dark tones. It's so heavy and beautiful. <3 nice pose, too.

I thought your writing was a song - so I looked it up, but nothing matched it on google. Not many poems fool me like that Everything matches up nicely from poem to portrait. Nice job here.

Without a sound I took her down
and dressed in red and blue, I squeezed
imaginary wedding gown
that you can't wear in front of me

A kiss goodbye, your twisted shell
as rice grains and roses fall at your feet
we'll say goodbye the hundreth time
and then tomorrow we'll do it again.

sorry that was screaming to be typed as a comment on this picture. something about the burrying her in your piece makes it horrifying and I have no idea why. Anyway I like the sort of grunge sketchy feel of this piece, it really works for it.

I personally like it. It made me feel the emotion behind it. "I hate to love you" sort of thing going on.

No matter how much you fucked up his body parts, His face expression gives me such a warm feeling; odd in contrast with the overall feel of this image, it's hollow and cold, with the ravens runnibg from the moon's brigther than usual halo, as if it knew what gastly creatures are wandering through the nights.
