Do different substances make you do different types of art?

In my head less and less.
For all you artists out there, I have a question. Well actually, this could go for any sort of creator, hobbyist, or leftist.

So, basically I am taking a break from my Adderol. I was looking at some of my art, and it's good, but it isn't the same. When I take Adderol, my art is much more busy and focused. It has a different style altogether. When I use to do Meth ( probably won't do that again despite requests for meth-art ) the style would be dramatically different as well. I have friends who only bought my meth-art. They liked it the most out of all of my stuff. I had a period where I was taking a lot of acid and my art was different on that too. It wasn't the way one would expect someone's art to be when he's tripping though. My sober-art looks like that. The acid art was a little bit more on the conservative side with more planning behind each stroke rather than just a random explosion of spontaneous ideas. My stoned-art is decent but I think about other stuff more during the art so it tends to be more auto-piloty. When I am drunk I think less but feel thirsty and sweaty so I rarely even draw unless I am out at an event, and in that case it does help me paint while people are watching but it's pretty similar, less cool if anything. Nothing against alcohol it just doesn't inspire new ideas so much. Regardless of the substance, I can still get the job done, but I have noticed subtle differences between each substance.

I am not endorsing drug use or anything, just hoping for some cool responses. I will post a few pictures to try and demonstrate the differences between substances.

Adderol. See how it stands out? It is digital, a portrait, and overall a different style altogether but if you look past that you can still see a large amount of focus put into it as well as a different perspective and style.

Let me know what you guys think and if you have some examples, I would love to see them. Thanks!
 
Well a friend couldnt stop drawing and adding to their drawing with lines and curls for the hair until it reached the end of the page on some sort of xtc pill
 
Taking Ketamine really made me feel like I had an artist inside me and when I took it I would spend a lot of the time wishing to be able to reproduce the things I was seeing artistically. However, I really lacked the mechanical drawings skills to be able to do that. The key feature of the drug though was that it produced aesthetic experiences.

I did notice though that combining ketamine with other drugs such as MDMA, LSD, DMT, and Cocaine would greatly influence the artistic visions I would then experience. The whole experience of being high was still predominately an aesthetic experience to me - but each different drug combined with the ket would be the source of an entirely new aesthetic genre.
 
Awesome paintings man. I love your style, very raw.

Amphetamine, opiates and cannabis are my favorite substances to write on. I love making music while on psychedelics and stuff like ketamine.
I think the psychedelic's definitely removes some of the 'dark' vibes I usually end up with - sexually charged or very violent and dark, while, not surprisingly, amphetamines add to that feeling with it's own psychotic flair.
