Share your artwork v. BL's got talent

This is one of many different variations of this piece that I'll do. Mind you it's pretty sloppy, in general.

man everyone here has some mad skills. I don't have one iota if artistic ability in me. I am glad there are people out there thatdo, because it makes everything more beautiful.

Keep sharing your talents with the world.
 
ugly, I don't know why you put art in quotations. That's absolutely art. Unless you're referring to it more as a craft. Either way... those are fucking awesome. I REALLY love the one with the melted gift card. LOVE it. Fucking creative.

Sweet. Thanks.:)
 
I need to start painting again. I got a massive artistic block when I decided that I was going to try being an artist as a profession, and I put waaaay too much pressure on myself. Haven't painted for months, but I should go back to it as a hobby, because I feel so emotionally stable and peaceful and spiritual when I paint regularly.

Here are a few of my favourites from last year:

Desire - Apart from the nipples and bellybutton, this is done by fingerpainting, not by brush, it took about two hours and I'm so happy with the result:

All acrylic on canvas.

I want to try abstract art, but I've no idea how I'd go about it. I'm a pretty methodical artist - I paint from photos and just change colours and add little details. The idea of painting from scratch with no inspiration except my crazy little head scares me a bit. 8o

I love it. I absofuckinglutely love it <3
 
^EDIT: @ GlitterBizkit

That's exactly why it sounds like it's a good idea for you! Letting go ftw.

In other news - THOSE ARE AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING... Seriously, beautifully rich in colour and body. I got to say the finger painted nude is my favourite - exquisite - who is that naked? It's beautiful. I also love the way the beads on the jester's hat jump out all 3D-like.
 
Got bored one day and decided to spruce up my laptop's wallpaper with an amateur Photoshop collage of one of my favorite stars of American movie history, Mabel Normand. Thanks to supertrav77 (wherever that guy ran off to) for turning me on to her body of work, although I'm way more captivated by her imagery than her acting abilities. I think I'm obsessed with her face.
