The feeling in one's heart when desiring to create, to put heart into stories, ideas, to be enough. The desire to be undesirable, least be taken advantage of or misunderstood. The realization every thought and action are controlled by fear. There are only walls behind walls. #art #sketch #oc
half body of a greaser with various piercings on eyebrows and lower lip, wearing a jacket; not my own oc. bust of woman with long hair looking away, clearly frustrated. Embodiment of anxiety controlling ones actions, cautious, protective, strong yet terrified. Your fears are not you. You take on your fears, fighting for yourself, and realize how little there is left of 'you'. Actions made out of fear, controlled yet again, believing it was of free will. Who are you, without that fear directing your every move? Lastly, a vague being with strange goggles filled with a liquid, watching with disapproval, doing nothing about it. Tch. a trumpeter glancing back, smiling, albeit wary. i wanted an excuse to draw this guy again; one of my oldest ocs going back to 2007 when i myself played the trumpet in a jazz band; i didnt have quite the lung capacity for it in reality, despite loving it. i had wished to continue playing it, but it was not meant to be. at least i still have it. it has been a long time since ive touched it. It has been a long time since i have drawn him. apocalypse oc that inspired me to work out more (well, walk), as well as finally chop my hair. i tried keeping a mid-short haircut with them prior to this image, but settled on this one as my preference. Its now part of their story. He does not trust those around him to have his well-being in mind, since in the past it has only caused him hurt. To speak of vulnerability is to give the other the advantage, and he already has no control. "What am I going to do now, after everything that's happened?... You know, maybe we can talk about a different subject? If that's alright with you?"

Based off intrusive thoughts I've had

The accident pulled a parallel world self into the same space as himself, and has to deal with two of self in one body now.

Anxiety loves to linger in the back of the mind, and complicate even the simplest tasks
#art #oc #screenshot
Text in image: "You will never be fully prepared for what life will throw at you on your own." Grayscale bust of an older man with some grey hairs within his black hair, a lil twirl of hair covering part of his forehead on his left side. He is looking down on with concern, knowing even with his help it may not be enough. He's my version of how my anxiety speaks to me.

You do so much, yet it is never enough
#art #oc #sketch
Busts of Mute frowning in different perspectives. The work is endless and tiring, but it must be done. Image of Mute holding head while sitting at desk from a view from behind on their left side. Image of them gritting teeth with eyes shut. Image of them wanting to speak up, choking back tears. Their words would fall on deaf ears.

you will never be like anyone else
#art #oc #sketch
Multiple eyes, body dripping, a creature behind the mask (mask not shown here). Image shows them releasing hold of own head upon realizing, with tears forming, nothing they could ever do will be enough to fit in. alien and isolated in a void of one's own making, dug further by no fault of their own.

some old sketches ; body horror, eye trauma, teeth, blood, saliva warning #art #monster #oc
3 heads on a hydra attacking a guy, blood splattered across the scene, a lower head taking out the legs of the guy so they wouldnt be able to escape. my oc influencers design was actually inspired by this picture years after i drew it. A rep of anxiety watching one's every move, ready to 'snap' the instant a mistake was made. Many eyes, many teeth. shot of a maw coming out of the darkness, wanted to practice texturing at the time shapeshifter who lost control of cellular modification, growing teeth out of wrong places, skin bubbling open, tongue split, several eyes forming with what looks like blood leaking out. tooth in eye warning.

Mute is sort of my fursona, I do have a separate story for them. Their design is inspired by a blue sea dragon!

sketch of a shapeshifter who desires to be left alone, struggling to find places untouched by humanity.

The few who see believe it to be a wingless dragon, a silent shadow slipping through the forests it traverses through.

a shapeshifter growling, body curling to turn around facing the right, clearly irritated. He doesnt care about pronouns, nor names.

Experimenting with #animation in CSP;
I love diving into something new before learning the proper #art techniques ha.

It was an interesting yet fun challenge to animate water + glasses glinting + moving across the screen!

First #art post!
I'll be posting random sketches of my various characters #oc to this void over time. Or I wont! Time will tell.
Hope you enjoy!
Older man in trench coat resting, apprehensive posing crossed arms with hands out, big smile, water in a low level in what appear to be some sort of glasses, white jacket floating from the movement
