Triggered: Yesh! It's different for all of us! Lend me some passion if you have some to spare <3
Aight, so didn't get any drawing done today, had to help the folks a whole lot, which suckz :/. Did learn a few things tho,
1. The main reason I was pushed away from goth is that I thought it was limited to just black and white compositions, since the skin was just one big white spot and the black a big rainbow spot... So basically, I learned today, looking through a lot of modern painters that you can just shift values and hues to make something that appears to be a black clothing article appear a completely different value or hue. Which opened my mind up a lot.
2. Also, you can learn how to mix colors old school style without crackin out your oils, or acolytes, or Gyrados Magic Schoolbuses. You can just practice them base tones on your corel painter or photoshop (but not any other software, you literally have to have these softwares because the brushes are magic ;)
Did some more gothic research, getting a bit deeper with it. Something I really care about is extreme metal. I remember one time I had a private conversation with a young lady where I said something along the lines of "Because Extreme metal is so important to me." She then said, "Lol, you should get a shirt with that in big letters with a picture of your face."
So I actually plan on doing that at some point in my life, and mailing her one, so she knows how serious I am. Anyways, I was learning how gothic culture overlaps with metal very closely, like cousins. Goth culture, however, is much more concerned with image and the lifestyle than the metalhead world. I've learned a lot about movies goths love, which many of them I've seen, music they love, which most of them I haven't heard, and goth literature, which I've actually read a bit of.
I hope to make something cool out of it... Hmm, time is a precious thing to waste, but who knows what is the best way to spend it.
