I have been trying to make music and do other things that express that for years, and my music is fairly good but I feel that text is really the best way to do this.

Some earlier works:





That last one is painted over another painting (that is a copy of a painting by a famous artist that was made by an unknown art student) that was made in the 1890s

i really like these, would also love to hear the music

This one has a good story, I found this faded alpine landscape print literally in the garbage and liked the frame and wanted to paint something over it. But 3 years passed and I hadn’t done anything with it. Then it was my friend’s birthday, and I decided to customize it for him, so I asked him for his favorite color and quote, and it was red and this. So I made it, and then stood back and was flabbergasted by what I had produced. I tried to give it to him but he said that it was too forcefully depressing and refused to accept it as a gift, so I still have it.

That friend was a goon and the quote came from YOSPOS. Someone had trouble installing their modem and couldn’t figure out how to configure it and asked for advice and this was the answer.

do you have creation stories about each of your songs as well?

is there more nihilist art?

So, this one I found in a second hand shop, it has velvet in the frame and I added the text. I bought it because I thought it was so supremely hosed up, crying girl head floating in black surrounded by soft velvet and gold. I wanted an explanation for its existence and I looked up "crying child painting" and apparently paintings of crying young boys were popular in England in the 70's, and they are said to be cursed. The reason for this is that they were all made in the same factory and were covered with some kind of lacquer that was fire-resistant. So whenever a house burnt down, the string holding up the painting (or the wall itself) would burn up and the painting would fall facedown on the ground, with the image of the crying child perfectly preserved. Firefighters kept finding these in burnt down houses and started getting freaked out, thinking the paintings were cursed and that the paintings themselves started the fire.

No idea why this one was made though, I don't live in England. It's creepy as gently caress and currently hanging on a wall in my attic.

also it would take a bit of digging but a section on the origin of “Trump!”. it’s probably the most posted thing on the forum but I wonder how many people remember where it came from.

TRUMP!!

I have begun work on the alchemical section

I will try to use more of the imagery posted. If you have some esoteric semi mystical text, that would be handy.

Anything like this especially:

That image, if you're not familiar, draws on The Elder Scrolls mythology and just word-filters a few lore concepts with forum nouns. We could easily create some appropriate additions of such do not already exist.

I agree with what other posters have said, Boosted_C5 should definitely be immortalized in this holy tome.

A man with VERY LARGE hands. Maybe the largest hands of any man who has ever lived. And a man who proudly wore his MAGA hats in public, without shame, and without fear.

I just watched the Vincent Price version of "Masque of the Red Death"

I think you would like it, the head of the guard looks like a young Ted Cruz, the end is kind of a interpretive dance number

I'm now picturing a remake with Trump, and Peter Dinklidge murders Mitch McConnell during the "masque" portion of the evening by first tricking him to dress up as a gorilla and then lighting him on fire to the applause of the drunk and stoned out of their mind party guests

I watched that film entirely because it is quoted in a song by Theatre of Tragedy, deffo recommend it
