Art Share🎨

This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

No harm, I didn't mean to ask for your apology. You didn't do anything wrong and thankyou for making sure people don't fetishize mental illness. I consider all your comments respectful.

Having thought on it I do think my drawing is probably too direct about it for something lacking a context I haven't added. I think I should have waited until I made some more associated writings so that the nuance in my mind about the topic would have carried across better. Sorry for any distress.

Usually I am not so direct as I was with this. I am glad you still considered it respectful. I always try to be respectful, but as English is not my mother tongue I am sometimes scared that I miss some nuance or something and come across differently.

You do not need to apologise either. You have every right to express yourself. Especially when it is something personal. It is not other people's job not to trigger me. Getting reminded of things like this is just part of life. If you fight it or try to avoid it, it will become worse. So it is fine.

I wish you a lot of success with making more art!
