This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

I've been depressed as hell lately and have taken all my art off the internet as far as I'm aware, but wanted to share something new I've done, and here. It's been months since I've been able to do something creative again.

This is way feirce, dude, saturated. It makes me think of the feirce buddhas of Tibet -- i think these are considered sacred images, at least by some, and hard-er to get your eyes on. Whenever I want to take a look again, it's a trial to find something. you know, if you're looking for a creative distraction, since you work with shirts, what do you think of the concept: accidental-mythic-image-as-positive-commentary-on-impossible-proof? I'm attaching a pic or a pdf i have, and no tease, if this works, then it makes an even buck for you too, and i'll reason plainly with you. See what you think -- i have hectares of backstory... (I claim artistic sensibilities, but what i am is a philosopher and a logician -- this image just "fell out" of a proof which i published way back in 2001, and it's as though it's a deliberate comment! What you'll see is written in strict faith with it's unformatted appearance in the 2001 publication, and i remark that with your clear talent and skill, playing with fonts and such, hopefully researching a bit by talking with me, you could be amplifying a message, for (??) $75 per shirt? i think it could catch on.) I'm a Canadian newbie here, sorry, want to give my email just in case the functionality is weird: heretic_glaux@disroot.org

Woah, pretty f'ing cool, OP!

This is dope, did you just draw on it with a bleach pen?

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 5 points 1 week ago

Basically haha and thanks! :)

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

That's fucking cool

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I love this style. Could not pull it off but I'd love to see someone who can.

Like if I was doing a fictionalised movie based on the Narcosatanicos, I'd have Adolfo Constanzo's character dress like this.

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'll have to check all that out, I'm not familiar!

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hmm it's actually a super gnarly story. Unless you enjoy true crime or occult stuff, reading about the guy is just going to do psychic damage. Basically he used corrupted palero teachings to parley his dark beliefs in divination/necromancy into a place among the drug cartels.

Every content warning known to man applies. The story begins, middles, and ends badly.

I had hoped that my comment about the shirt would, in all that context, work out to a really fun compliment - but if you're at all sensitive I might have just ruined your day and I super hope not.

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's all right up my alley and take this as a massive compliment!

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Can I just say, thank fucking god? I I was almost so embarrassed I was ready to dive into my nganga like a Gwar version of Scrooge McDuck

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lol my wife and I had to kinda do a dive on ngangas there. I'm not as polished on the Kongolese culture, etc. But always willing to learn! My special area of occult interest was daemonalatry. Haha. And cool, Gwar fan hell yeah

[–] GrantUsEyes@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So cool, you've inspired me to try this!

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Please tell me that it's a dark blue or black shirt with a bronzy gold print.

[–] creamlike504@jlai.lu 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Looks white and gold to me.

[–] ReiRose@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Blue and black!

[–] RusAD@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think it's done with bleach on black/dark-blue

[–] Acamon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Very cool! Love the style and colour.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fantastic! Is it paint pen?

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I used paintbrushes and then I also emptied some highlighters and filled them with bleach :)

What a neat idea. Very clever!

[–] BubblyRomeo@kbin.earth 4 points 1 week ago

This is so dope!

[–] timmytbt@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Cool stuff. Thanks for sharing. I hope your mental health improves/stabilises.

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 4 points 1 week ago

I appreciate that

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 4 points 1 week ago

Thank you to everyone for the support. :) means a lot.

[–] SSETranquility@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Incredible! Thank you for sharing.

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Tight!

Post your other shit. Even if you can't make more right now, you should share what you have. Sometimes you just have to grind.

I don't have any advice other than hold on and keep pulling. It usually gets better.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I like it. Reminds me of a style I attempt sometimes

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 2 points 1 week ago

That is definitely a shirt with art on it.

[–] Anas@feddit.dk 2 points 1 week ago

This looks super sick. I'm going to go look up how to do this with bleach pens. I've been getting in to runes lately, so some Viking inspired art might be fun. αš±αš’αšΎα›αš±
