I am a cartoonist and writer who loves to share the music and inspiration I find with others. If you enjoy my art, consider checking out my stories and comics on Tapastic.
Whether if by hearing another musician's work, or working on edit mixes of my own, the music always comes first as it has the greatest influence in helping hone in on a feeling that can transition inevitably into a full visual work.
Hey, bless. To give you and some others an explanation, the meaning behind this work primarily focuses on the magick of art. A lot of it is symbolic whereas many other works have a larger narrative behind them. The figure is the shadow or id, the primal and hidden side of the psyche. They are masked, the carved form of the inverted triangle ( a meaning always associated with falling before rising) covers their face. The tower is meant to be a person's structure, and the great hole in it is the part of individuals, like the shadow, which hides a sun waiting to illuminate one from within. The id dominates this tower at the height of pain and trauma, and turns away from the sun beyond it, for only introspection can free it and fill the hole. Art in many ways I feel helps along this process if reflected upon.That in itself is a magick that can transform a person and make them more whole. Finding their light and revelation in darkness and the hole within.
Brains do be like that Sometimes you're your own worst enemy It's hard to give help or advice when I know i my self damn well have the same problem But brains being brains They'll always tell you you're not doing enough Only thing I can really say is. Once it does so. Try to calm your self and think about what you *have* done, what you've accomplished. Objectively. Does what the brain s saying hold any water? Have you truly not done enough? It's hard to quantify but, look how far you've gotten. Some people couldn't even start doing what they love due to their brains being... Well, dicks But you? You've gotten so far If you can't be proud of your self, at least know damn well I and we in general *are* proud of you Man that was a long rant Sorry bout that hahah
I get that feeling, you are not alone. Yet other times I just want to do nothing. So it's a messy cycle of; Do stuff, It doesn't do much, feeling like I'm not enough, want to do nothing, annoyed at doing nothing, but don't know what to do. Get motivated again for the cycle to repeat.
Speaking as someone with anxiety I get this feeling. Mine manifests as mental shutdowns that make me feel like I'm just...unable to do anything. It may not mean much but rest assured you do plenty all things considered Shane. Thanks for being your talented self.
Anxiety sucks, but at least you're finding inspiration in it. Really though, you do more than me and I'm fine, so what sort of enough aren't you doing? You're fine.
I have an axiety disorder I am on medication because it can get to the point I can't control myself and this is a perfect representation for how it can feel. no matter what it says to Shane you do matter and you are enough.
Sweetie, you do, what you want and able to do. What you feel or willing to do. Harshest judge is yourself, also the best praise is from yourself as well.
