What Feelings do you try to Convey in your Work?

[ColinsCreations]

Been a long time since I posted one of these questions. But, better late than never. When I talk about feelings, I mean feelings with meaning. I mostly try to convey feelings of joy and love in my works, or lack thereof when I have to. Whether it’s characters hugging, or when a character suffers a tragedy, I try my best to emulate that emotion to the viewers. What meaningful feelings do you try to convey in your works? Sorrow, romance, joy, fear, etc?

My art is like the visual equivalent of this song (at least that's what I consider it)

If I had to describe it, it would be like "Mindful and delicate angst"

But that's mainly my own interpretation of it, so I feel that it's a good idea to ask other people what feelings they think it conveys.

[EmsDeLaRoZ]

Depends of what i'm trying to achieve. I tend to express a wide range of feelings in my art.

In this one for example, I tried to emphazise insanity, sickness and lack of empathy.

In this other one, I tried to depict isolation and introspection

And in this one, I wanted to show some curiosity, joyfulness and maybe at some level, a bit of weirdness

You certainly capture the ranges of these feelings quite well.

Well…you’re just starting out by the look of things. I recommend studying a bit about anatomy first then do research some expression examples. Watch some media involving genuine romance, overwhelming fear, unbridled joy. It’s easier for me because I have a strong sense of empathy, but try to figure out what works for you. Here’s some stuff from my gallery that may help you a bit, as I drew these with strong emotions in mind. Studying may suck, but it’s a necessity.

Oh, I was just trying to help you understand a bit more about how to express emotions in your work. What style you decide to portray your desired emotions in is up to you. ☺️

[TheShokBlok]

Idk, silliness, I guess.

[Chuw-Croissantier]

Freedom and pure joy

That's the things you think of when you see my art (or at least that's what i think and want to transmit mainly lmao)

[ColinsCreations]

I can tell. Silliness is just unhinged joy from how I see it.

I mean I guess its what I feel when I do shit in any aspect so the product probably reflects it to a degree?

wonder how the automatic embeds are programmed and if the stretching of the box was intentional or lazy, guess in this context it looks good.

To be honest, I see indifference more than I see confusion. Not that you’re uncaring in your work, rather it’s like you just let yourself off the leash when you work. It’s blunt, brutal, unabashed, yet relatable.

[MondoBilby]

My art's feelings mostly consist of contagious joy and grooviness. I guess, if I had to describe how my art makes me feel, it makes me want to dance.

[smashbrethren]

maybe a bit of a cop out answer but enthusiasm, if i had to pick a single one? not so much my sketches or anything but i want people to look at my finished works and think they were made with care

Your work certainly expresses that DeBlob-style of joy and funk! The vibrancy, the dynamics, the colors, they all give off that feel-good groovy vibe!

I can tell that a lot of energy was put into these. But I can barely sense it because it’s currently late where I’m at and I’m barely staying focused and awake.

[DozyMike]

I'm not sure if I settle on a particular emotion but I like to keep a lot of my art "quiet" I suppose

Whether it's meant to be something calm, spooky, reflective, whatever, I like my art to get across those kind of quiet, in-between moments

Like if I were to draw a monster design, it would be the moment the flashlight lands on them and I'd wanna get across that pang of terror that shoots through your head in that split second. Or if I were to draw an environment piece, I like to add a little guy just sitting and resting by a tree or something, settling down to take in the scenery around him

[tydaze]

Mostly I try to express the personality of the character that I'm drawing

[Mitchelf]

Hopelessness.

[Dolorious]

mental pain

A pain that leads one bordering the edge of madness and despair. Clinging onto the one thing that brings comfort. That's probably the best way to describe it. I'm not too good at explaining feelings.

This comic page of mine conveys something similar as well. Someone with nothing left to lose.

Whichever one I'm feeling at the time.

[MrPurpleMrPurple]

Not sure what word best describes it but probably "grime". I like depicting things that are decrepit, strange, and flawed.

[RepriseAgain]

Working on my piece for a 2000s collab. Def going for nostalgia.

I can see that. The anguish can certainly be felt.

Saw some of your work, I can definitely tell you’re going for something more…uncanny. I think that’s what best describes your work.

[Narratorway]

Odd as it may sound for someone's whose output is largely smut, but I would say the primary thing I want conveyed when viewing my art is...security?

I find adult artwork's indulgence in taboo to be tiresome, overly saturated and embarrassingly insecure and what I make is very much a direct response to that content. Adult or otherwise, largely what I draw are characters doing things and what I want communicated in my work is that those character are unambigiously comfortable and happy doing those things.
