.o0O my paintings O0o.

by paintings i just need a word for visual art that isn't as broad

I made this for my song, Washed. The girl creature thing with the eyes was something i drew in my notebook a while ago (see here!). It was meant to be innocent and girl-like but kind of stupid and funny looking like a cat, like how innocence shouldn.t be idealised in the creepy way it often is. But here it ended up less funny and more strange, like a alien cave painting. The slightly creepy, slightly cute creature is a weird contrast, but fear and love are so near that to expect one without the other is unnatural and harmful.
I wanted a red, black, and green colour pallette because that was my favorite combination of colours. I love how the blood red contrasts against the grass green, like violence and nautral life together; death and life as one.

The picture and song really only connect a little through how i got those beautiful chords to sound harsh and how artists who run out of creative drive and become complacent is tragic because of the missed oppertunity of something beautiful.

To get that watery texture in the image, i washed the file. I initially exported it as a .webp file with as much compression as my program allowed. I upscaled the image to double the pixles in a .png format for format compatibility.

I made this for my song, Pollen. I had the original image -a collage of symbols and art- from a playlist i made in May'24. It's all symbols, abstract expressionist art, philosophical/religous diagrams, and miscellaneous select images (meant to represent content you'd see on the internet), all interacting and competing for your attention in one image. For the song cover, i thought the flowers and mess of information fit perfectly with the concept i had for the song, about noise and attention. I took a picture of the collage on a nintendo 2DS, exported it to my computer, edited the image a little, and added the title. I used the image compression from all that exporting as a way to pull the image together more in a way that i felt matched the song.

I made this for my song, Scraps. The name came from the picture. There's not much meaning to it but i love how it looks. Especially with how the clean red contrasts with the paper texture of the little cat in the corner, fighting for a fish. I drew the cat based on an image i saw on the internet, scanned the drawing with my phone, cut it out, and put it on red because that was my favorite colour. I had 2 versions of the drawing (this one, and a worse drawn one which i thought looked more like it was moving) and got help from an artist friend on which to pick. I wasn't going to go for the one they picked before they said but i trusted their taste and looking back they were definetly right.
