"Lost in the garden"
2016
Prismacolor pencil on black A3 paper,
297 x 420 mm, (11.7 x 16.5 in)
This drawing I was very happy with, especially with the tri-tentacles, the heart shaped suckers and heart back spiders. I thought it was very beautiful, and I'd even put it in the "nice" category, as apposed to the porny gory category.
It was not a big hit.

Beautiful work. Curious how you get it to come out so well on the black paper. I usually have to add some sort of pastel to make it pop.

I use prismaocolor...I never get whites that white though. I have to say your work is really inspiring me.

thanks @twirble I used to just airbrush acrylic onto canvas, about ten years ago, but then I saw Apricot Mantle's work, I thought they were paintings, but they were prismacolor pencil, that when I made the change. look him up!

Apricot Mantle is brilliant; I think your work is better though.

I wasnt even sure If I wanna open this post up..
It is the bound/subdued blowjob face that I don't like .. and since it takes up the main role of the image, it decides about the emotional charge of the piece..
I guess I just want to see happy people.. she doesn't look that.. there's also an abuse element in that expression.. don't like that neither.
People getting abused(even consensual )or abusing others.
//is it still abuse when it is consensual??
It is interesting.. one can spend so much time dedication and work on a piece but when people don't even wanna look at it since their primary emotional reaction is negative, they will never appreciate the subtle details and ideas nor the craft and time=art that went into it..
that schyzophreny is well captured in this work.
It may be a big hit in some years.

I get what you mean; this image presents a horrible truth; her eyes are tortured. Many artists who draw abuse are expressing their own truth but they may not want to open up about it to strangers. I have some art no one will ever see until I am dead.

thanks @furius the girl in the references as I recall was having a good time, but that sad eyes, and the frown wrinkling the forehead, I'm starting to find common especially when a ball gag is involved. I was looking for a scared face for this drawing, and the more lines in the face the better for me. I also wanted her to look like she didn't want tentacles to emerge from her mouth.
I too prefer to see happy people.
