This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

That's very good.

Also happened to watched a documentary last night about the The Kerry babies case, and your drawing instantly reminded me of the wrongly accused Joanne Hayes, so even the name you gave it fits:

Joanne Hayes

Thank you!

Wow this case is grim on so many levels.

You're very welcome!

And yeah, it really is awful, almost sorry I had to link it, but the image just shared such a striking resemblance (in my mind, anyway!) and I thought some context would help since she isn't otherwise well known.

This is cute and kind of morbid at the same time. Pastels? Er, oil pastels? Charcoal...actually...probably. Right? I just see all the smooshy and I think about what an asshole pastels are to control. Cause they're totally assholes. Kinda reminds me a smoosh between primitive art, anime gals, and the faces in those tiles they found in Spain. Which apparently was a hoax...goodbye one more fun thing from my childhood. Boo!

Charcoal! Super messy but still my favourite traditional medium.

I like when you work with charcoal that it steadily works its way everywhere in your surroundings. Hahaha! I used to have an easel setup and all I did was smudge charcoal all over it and underneath it, it looked like a slew of tiny black smudgey ants were lined up (because the charcoal would fall off the paper and slide down into one little uniform pile). It still makes me happy to think about =)
