An empty soul isolated and fuelled by desperation

This is vent artwork i made today, both to help myself get out of a funk (had a shittier than usual couple of weeks recently) and also as a thanks to all of you for helping me cope and feel less isolated. Whenever i felt so bad i couldn't get out of bed i read through r/SS and understood i wasn't alone in how i felt (though i remained a lurker because i don't want to make a reddit account).

I truly appreciate all this community has done to keep itself alive through Reddit's admins' ban-hammers. It may not seem like much, but this picture means a lot to me, and is currently hanging next to my bed so i feel that same gratitude i felt with r/SS whenever i do get out of bed. I hope you can find some sort of meaning in it too. Thank you all. <3

(Also, if anyone wants to repost this to r/TimeToGo i would really appreciate it, i'd love for them to see the picture too.)

Art has always intrigued me; It can convey so many things that words alone cannot.
Thank you for sharing this!

This is really a nice piece. There's complexity and order at the same time. I really like the natural forms like trees, wings, feathers and the eye observing. Can't help but notice parallels with Van Gogh who also created images of nature without boundaries ("Starry Night" etc). He also had a thing about suicide too...

Very talented. It reminds me of Giorgio de Chirico's surreal paintings.

I've tried to devote myself to drawing in the past years, but without a shred of success. Making art is definitely not for everybody (unless it's Dadaism). Enjoy your gift!

I'm with Vox! Looks like Van Gogh got his colors taken away and had to make do with a pencil. Good shit dude!
