Self-Portrait For Digital Image Making.


Self-Portrait for Digital Image Making.
I'm going to explain to others that this is a personal piece. Some people are aware that I was physically and mentally abused as a child by my mother. As a result, I constantly see myself as a broken, damaged individual who doesn't deserve any happiness.
This portrait is suppose to show the result of how I see myself as a result of the years of abuse. I see myself as a ugly person that needs to be hidden. All I can see about my appearance is the physical marks I had and emotional scars I still have and continue to cope with.
I've never actually cut myself but I have attempted it multiple times to deal with my pain, which is why I drew them on my arms.
The second image is what I used as reference. It was shot by my Digital Painting professor.

My 3rd watercolor painting for Advanced Figure Anatomy. The theme for this one is related to a mad scientist.

Kittycon Megatron & Starscream.
Kittycon concept belongs to Krazifreak on deviantART.

I seem to have my DBZ OC, Ava, hanging out with Smokescreen a lot.

Instead of annoying Ichigo with a strawberry, Raditz scares her with a spider resulting in her smacking it away and her yelling at him. He laughs at her, but it ends with Nappa whacking him...very hard. This was drawn in pencil quickly with some digital work done (everything red & blue and to clean this up). This comic would've been completely digital but most of my attention has been put towards schoolwork.

My birthday gift for Diamond-Rainbow on DA. I would upload it on her B-Day but I'm doing it a day early because I'm going to be busy with schoolwork all day tomorrow.
I'm still a huge fan of the Turles X Ai pairing so I made this for her.
