This one is astonishing, what drug was it influenced by?
I absolutely love the others around it too. You are very talented.
This one was influenced by LSD+Ketamine, wicked combo!

I like this one.
I like how it isn't symmetrical, while appearing to be.

Painted this while on a cocktail of ketamine and MXE. Took a week of dissociated painting. Sorry you have to click a link but couldn't recall how to upload the image. Oil, acrylic and enamel
on canvass. Oh yeah and I was holed the entire process. Not inspired by a substance just under the influence. Traditional medium not computer generated.

Okay this is going to be a big post, I apologize, I will NSFW these though so they don't scroll unless you want them to.
Okay, so, about two years ago I started painting with acrylics for fun. I happened upon some techniques that are quite unique by accident as I was playing, and gradually I came to realize I should try to see where this can take me. So, after I work my regular 50 hour a week job (that I work from home for), I go out to an outdoor arts and crafts market with 12 stalls, and I take up 4 or 5 of them and set up a gallery (hardly anyone sells things there in the evening but I do well). And I sell my art. I usually make about $100 a day now when I go out, on the weekends anyway. I've sold a bunch of originals including some of these ones. These are my images I produced with my camera that I use for prints. I'm next in line to get into this for sale gallery in town that is really popular, really excited about that.
They are abstract acrylic paintings, I use high-quality paint that is undiluted so it is very 3-dimensional and textured like oil paintings tend to be. Here are some of them.
This is my favorite piece, it's called "Hope". I painted it when I was really depressed and it helped give me hope. It was when I first realized I should take this somewhere.
This is another favorite, it's called "Dark Hill". I painted this on the same day as "Hope"
This is the third piece I painted on the same day, it was a productive day, I worked through a lot of emotions. This was the last one, it's called "Blue Hole", to me it looks like you're in an underwater cave, but looking up at the sunlit surface.
This piece is the first major piece I did using a technique I had discovered that is my favorite one, I called it Dimensional Marbling. It's a way to marble the paint together so the colors don't mix, they remain distinct and swirl into each other with so much tiny detail that you can hardly see it all with the naked eye. This piece is actually 4 inches by 4 inches, so it's probably larger on your screen than it is in real life. Underneath is a close-up of some of the detail.
I use the marbling technique a lot in my work, though only in a couple I am posting here (for now). This one is called "Down Below", and it's another of my favorites. To me it represents addiction, but it was designed to bring to mind anything that can pull you under. It uses the marbling technique for the tentacles. Below the main photo is a closeup of some of the tentacles.
This piece is called "Hurt", because to me it feels like the pain of love.
This piece is called "Mobius". The background is a style I do a lot, in fact I can do a 12 by 12 inch canvas in this sort of fade from one color to another, in about 15 to 20 minutes, I often paint them in front of potential customers, and occasionally have painted one for someone on the spot or they decided they wanted it when I was done. This particular one has some extra detail in a layer over the background.
This piece is called "Sunset Smear". It's a technique I recently perfected but I had done by accident once, in the next piece below.
This piece was a bit of an accident, and when I was done my wife said "It's like a self-portrait of your eye". I agreed, it's the colors of my eyes (roughly). It's titled "I-ris".
I have a whole bunch more that are new that I haven't taken photos of yet. Sometimes I paint 10 paintings a week and I also do these little 3 by 3 inch mini canvases with a color exploration with the marbling technique and I sell them for $10, I go through a lot of those. Feels good to make a little extra money, and mostly to get it out there for people to enjoy.
I hope you like it.

Damn man, those are seriously awesome, especially the marbling technique, I imagine it now, "Noooo wayyyy broooo just look at this color!", "Oh but bro your totally missing this color scheme and it's representations....damn am I tripping....
".
If I'm ever not poor and it's before your big break, I would love it if you could create a homage to "Help", chose whatever you want, it could be about me the user "Help?!?"(since we didn't get much time together you probably don't know me well but I bet you could think up words like chaos or even something like insanity)or it could just be about help in general.
This way if I'm ever around when you hit it big, I can have a custom street beggar portrait and tell them you used the money to buy yourself food for the first time in days, seriously though I'd frame it and if you ever get huge I can tell the one nicer possession I have is from you back when we posted near each other sometimes on a forum lifetimes ago, haha!
To bad I'll never have the money but I will dream of a custom canvas painting people can swirl wine pretentiously around in a glass in front of you while they tell each other what another person was thinking when they made what they did....

Thanks dude, it means a lot that you have that much faith in me. Tell you what, I'll make a painting that I title "Help?!?!" that is inspired by you. What are your favorite colors?
