what are they on?!?

Thu Apr 16, 2009, 3:21 AM
  • Mood: Sadness
Tonight I spent a while looking for one simple stock image of a sad woman and what do I get? Pages and pages and pages of young people cutting wrists, cutting mouths, sewing up lips, so on and so forth, ad nauseum.

Young people on here are seriously screwed up. And as someone else said to me recently, DA is taking advantage of that. Oh yeah, give me all the excuses that I'm Soooooooooo out of touch. Yeah right. I think it's gross, you're all deluded, there's more to life than that. And yes, this is my rave so get over yourselves.

I've had my share of serious depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, etc. And yes, I have a few bits of art on here that are pretty graphic. But they are drawings, not photos of me in the act. Yes there are people that cut themselves. But taking photos of it and putting it up on DA? online? Even if it is fake blood there are kids on here that are impressionable, no matter how tough an exterior they put up.

And the ridiculous comments by posters - oh this is so emotional, so lovely, so real, blah blah blah. I didn't see a skerrick of emotion - just hardness and defiance.

One day you will regret it - as I do having seen that stuff.

Over and out.

Hillie, thanks for all your recent comments. They were very helpful and inspiring. And BTW , I now have a new art program to supplement Photoshop. It's called ArtRage. It costs $39 AUS and is not too bad.

Hi Albert - I use ArtRage1.1 - have had it a few years now. I like it - it does everything I want. I've seen the newest one and was thinking of buying it but for now will stick with what I've got. Love all your new images!

Hey,

Thank you for your comments on the picture of Aikoh on my page.

The art is all taken from our new graphic novel DevaShard which we are launching in April / May of this year. It will be the world's first graphic novel / comic book created by a team of artists half from the Eastern comic industries and half from the Western comic industries.

You can see more about what we are doing on our website, as well as art and even videos. I will try to post it here, but if it doesn't work you can check it from my DeviantArt home page.

We are really keen to let as many people know about it as possible, so tell your friends about it.

Thanks,

Spencer
