Tag As FavoriteComment		Yeah, I'm sure the title threw you off a bit. But yeah, it's a self portrait... when I'm feeling depressed. Sometimes, it just feels like I'm made out of terracotta pottery, and have been dropped. And anyone who's done that with ceramics, know that they are never quite the same after you do that. It feels like I broke and tried to put myself back together with scotch tape. Yep, maudlin, I know... *shrugs*.

Wow. As much as I love you, Ash, you are reeeeally creepy sometimes, lmao. But taht's about the best discription of what it feels like to be depressed that I've ever heard. I've always thought you're an amazing artist. -=sniffs=- The student has surpassed her teacher...

:-) Ashley 'Paradox' Craft replies: "Heh, creepy is my middle name."

I can relate to this image, and description on so many levels.

Good work - one of the few I’ve seen that I god an emotional response from.

Makes me want to put an ’emo-portrait’ up too

*wonders if people are ready for that kind of fearful spectre-smiles in a bittersweet kind of way*

On the less darker side, I can tell you from life’s path - that time heals some of the deepest wounds to the heart.

:-) Ashley 'Paradox' Craft replies: "Yeah, I know. It’s cathartic to draw your vulnerable side at times. It gives you an anchor to your emotions. "

oh yes, but the way I HAVE done my own self image portrait.

also (if it’s OK) there’s a link to this one in the description - so people can see where I got inspired from.

Should be up in about ten days from now (sun 06/08/2006).

again - good work.

:-) Ashley 'Paradox' Craft replies: "I am extremely flattered. Seeing this post made my day."
