I have nothing to say. This rule. You REALLY should make a print of this man. Faving it.

The description and the piece compliment one another and draw me into it deeper. This is disturbing, intruiging, and morbidly beautiful.

Reminds me very much of Paul Booth. If you don't know who he is, he is the underlord of Demonic Tattoos. He is world reknowned and quite frankly one of my favorite artists. You can check out his works at [link] Very nice detail and design.

Wow,thanx a fuckin' lot. I despise that trifle of an artist. World renowned perhaps, but his art is mainly comprised of trite and inept themes.

Well a portion of my reply was sarcastic. Yes! I took it as an insult. He sucks..... he's just so goddman overrated.

interesting approach to a man who cultivated what is now considered a "demonic" artform and made it possible for other artists to pursue their ideas while still being viewed as artists.

Oh, I am sincere... That is a beautiful picture to me. It captures what I would call the tourtured artist within. I fine beauty in beasts everywhere. And you should love me... Forget my heart... I'm a whore as well. ^^

I'm favouriting this... more for the writing than the image, though. I've been Unwell for a few years now, and this is the first time I've found something that... adequately expresses it, I guess, without sounding gothy or fake.

I must say that this artwork and your "description" (for lack of a better word) are the most emotional and truly _real_ feelings I've gotten from DA in a long, long span of time. You have inspired me to take a moment to creep back into myself and discover: am I really as happy as I tell myself I am? Can I remain like this forever? I most likely will not come out with something so well reflecting the artist's mood, but I can try. Much love, man.

I rather liked your sordid little comment. If I've inspired anyone to do anything besides hate me I can finally kill myself.
People tell themselves there happy merely to mitigate the anguish of thought, to sear the eyes of the mind so as to not see to much of the truth all at once. Life is pointless, transitory at best, human plight and their idealic affinity for emotional fulfilment and attatchment is comfounded and irrevocably their descension. Love and hope are four letter vulgarities spilling from the devil's throat
perplexing rational cognition, and only further perpetuating man's self-aggrandizing role as all-important, sentient beings.
In a universe[s] as vast and expansive as ours how can man begin to fathom he plays a key part and is'nt anything more than a cosmic coincidence. Yes the macrocosms are uniformed but I don't see how that necessarily implies intelligent
design.....................................
what about the quantum universe where everything is ruled by chaos.

if i were you i'd take it very positive to be able to express my feelings in a way like this. All the problems of the world can be drawn-out, versified, written, nothing stays inside and bothers you any longer than necessary :>

Why is barely anyone commenting on this? o.O It's fantastic. Very smooth shading, great detail, and amazing idea. Love the combination of the heart and pencil, like they're inexplicably linked, perhaps the pencil is creating the heart, pehaps it is changing it, perhaps it is destroying it...
So sorry that you have felt all those things behind this piece though. I hope you feel much better soon. You are not worthless, you are not pathetic, you are not souless. The very fact that you think about such things proves you're not. Showing and letting out emotion is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of courage, because in showing our emotions, we become our most vulnerable. And why should people not come to you? You're just as much human as the next person. Just as fascinating, just as capable of feelings, just as in need of friendship and support. So I'll offer mine if you want it.

Actually both would be suitable suggestions, hence the title of the piece; TURMOIL:a state or condition of extreme confusion, agitation, or commotion.
I don't anticipate my malady fading with time. I am WORTHLESS and PATHETIC in a sort of existential aspect, I wrote that while waiting for a girl I could never have. I dreamt of a love and life of which I could never acquire, I was imbued in quandary all over some silly little quixotic notion that maybe, just maybe I could perchance... be happy, if even for a fleeting second. I wan't love or death and nothing more. I'm not delusional, I know how inconsequential I am, how irreverant and servile I am how grotesque and malformed I am. So why don't you just sink back into your precious, comfortable flesh and forget I even exist on this plane.....I sold my soul an aeon ago.

Very true.
And no, things like that won't just fade with time. Time is not a healer in my experience, you have to be the healer, choose to do something about what you want. I don't believe anyone is outside of love and a happy life, but those things do take work, they don't just happen. No-one is irrelavent, and people cause consequences just by existing, just by being in a certain place at a certain time, just by their words, or the words they do not say. I have yet to see any person who is grotesque, except in spirit, and you are most certaintly not that.
My flesh is not comfortable; I don't belong here anymore, and I don't live life "comfortably." Just living comfortably is a very dangerous thing; you end up letting life pass you by, and have no deeper meaning. I can't forget people so easily.

Everything you describe is everything i feel. I can associate with your description, and the drawing is fuckin cool. It symbolises everything you said into one sharp, direct image. I don't see it really as a 'dark' drawing......you have soul and you put it into this, it's just the thoughts that are dark, and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure if you give yourself a chance you can think the complete opposite if you wanted....and be comfortable with it. I can tell you're an interesting person from this, gonna check out the rest of your work.

left-handed like me....
i attempted a series of drawings in an effort to capture/purge/visualize similar feelings. i came up woefully short in comparison to this. it's such torture to be unable to EXPRESS these things. thank you for sharing... i'm glad you have DA to post these things so people like me can know there are other people like me out there. (how's that for a completely redundant and confusing sentence?) anyway... well done. the detail is extraordinary....

This is one of my free-associated renderings. Essentially I suppose I've ascertained portions or fragments of a psychic entity an unambiguous construction of emotional instability. This is a glimpse of inevitability, my manifest destiny I guess you might say.

The ability to put so much of oneself into one's art - and to be able to make a strong piece of artwork, no less - continually astounds me! I'm envious!
