Itimeir's dead roses

8 December 2024

This was just a... Typical Itimeir drawing.

The thing is - this is literally all Itimeir is. This drawing is like... The definition of ITIMEIR. The dark roses, the chains, the bow, the lace, the nudity, the absent kind of weak expression and the abstract background... This is just him. Oh - and the dark and white contrasting colors. The minimalism and complexity of Itimeir.

Just Itimeir, Itimeir, Itimeir. ITIMEIR.... Ah

Though, I should talk more about the piece itself - I started it in Paint Tool Sai, finished in Clip Paint Studio as always. I wanted to add a beautiful sword (which would add to the aesthetic) but It was too much imo. I like the minimalistic state of this drawing.

The fact that I mixed the fully finished character with a sketchy and "sloppy" background is what I usually do - therefore I try to take advantage of my sloppiness. I have noticed that I tend to be VERY sloppy about everything in my art... And I find it difficult to break that - my lines are fast, dynamic, not so perfectionistic... So I'm trying to take advantage of that. The sloppiness, "jagginess" of everything is what is the part of me - something that defines my art, my writing, my life and emotions. It's kind of... The reflection of my personality and as said - emotions. That's why I learned to make the sloppiness its own kind of art and I see it as something beautiful. Let's start hating perfection - it's boring and everyone already does that.

Anyways. If I had to kind of say something about Itimeir here, then well... My psychotherapist, when shown this particular picture, asked whether Itimeir was a girl or boy LMAO and I laughed so hard HA, I replied that it depends on the interpretation... Cuz It's true I guess. And yes - this piece is supposed to kind of confuse the receiver - Itimeir's body is. And I think that I did it so well and he is beautiful the way he is... I am happy with his I guess kind of flat and smooth silhouette. It's very elegant and so well fitting into his symbolism, concepts etc. Itimeir makes me feel like I myself can be beautiful too, despite being surrounded by the opposite thoughts from others.

I don't think there is much to talk, as the symbolism could be clear. I also don't like saying out what each piece means - I like leaving everything up to the receiver.

These particular themes just... Feel like home.
