Artist's Comments

Self portrait in charcoal. I attempted to show my depression in a visual form. Blank look on my face even though i've been stabbed in the neck 4 times. Circuit boards take over my face showing how i hide behind technology. This picture is just me a normal average artist just trying to get by and live through the shame that i wont ever amount to much. The picture is based on a Hans Rudi Giger piece who a idol of mine. The assignment was to take an artist IE Giger and use his style to create a self portrait. So kudos to GIGER who is an amazing artist and everyone should look up his work. He was an amazing man.

Daily Deviation

Given 2004-04-29

As I write this, :devThaticanYaks: has a whopping 15 pageviews. In his short time, he submitted excellent work, including The Self Loathing. It is a great charcoal drawing with a certain Giger feel. Not only graphically stunning, but also emotional and true to the artist's feelings. An overall great piece of work. (Featured by `dinyctis)

That's one hell of a self-portrait. When I saw it as your featured picture, I prayed that you got a Daily Deviation at some point in time. :D
