Animals as Expression

When you make a work of art, what do you make yourself into? The human that you are? An abstraction? An animal? I make myself into an animal :) My animal of choice usually being a dog, wolf, or a fox.

Like many other people out there, I use these avatars of mine to convey how I am feeling. I say avatar because the dog, the wolf, and the fox are indeed representations of myself :)

Over the weekend, I was dealing with some personal trials, therefore I was NOT emotionally well. All I could think of to do in my pain was to draw. Here I have posted one of a series of 3 drawings. This one I find the cutest, though this series can be see on my outside DeviantArt account.


So who are you in your art? Are you an animal? Which are you?


Isn't that dog precious???

Re: Animals as Expression

I love her, she is most adorable but so sad.

Re: Animals as Expression

For me animals are a source of comfort and love, wisdom and fellow comrades.
In my artwork they are a part of this planet and play an important part in our lives.
I just allow the flow to happen. Who am I in my art? I suppose the recipient, the creator, the healed and healer.
