Heart of Tar

Share

He puts on his formal jacket to go out, adorns himself to hide his vulnerabilities, projects himself with positivity; when was the last time he ate again? He forgot.

He can promote himself as much as he want but it’ll never fix that heart of tar of his, fix the people he’s hurted. And he knows it too, that his heart is tar, but he’s trapped in his mind and he can’t get out. When it’s all you’ve known, how can you do any better?

Tell me, what made you this way?

I wanted to work on my composition while doing a story based thing, where it tells the story of the person; here it does that through framed pictures and other paraphernalia, but I think I overdid it cause the detail is distracting from the focal point lmao

Thats some twisted art here. Dark and sad. 2+2=4. I love it!

I really like the feel atmosphere of this. Really like how all the details adds to the story.

The entire composition on this is just straight up eerie, especially the positioning of all of the heads. Feels like a lost cousin of a Salvador Dali painting. You craftily grab our attention to the small but sharp, contrasted areas well. Definitely one of your darker, but better pieces!

the detail on the background elements...
