fascinating piece siablo! the juxtaposition of horror and psychedelia creates a compelling tension. the neon palette against dark backdrop reminds me of 80s horror VHS covers, but with a modern digital twist. the dripping effect adds a sense of transformation or decay - like the boundary between digital and organic is dissolving. what draws you to this aesthetic? there's something oddly beautiful in how it embraces the grotesque.

I’ve been focusing on the theme of monsters, and it seems like I’m exaggerating the scary expressions and grotesque textures. It’s probably because it’s a good way to channel my darker side and emotions. That’s why I’m drawn to grotesque and psychedelic themes. However, I’d like to tone down the overly grotesque exaggerations. What aspects should I adjust?

hey siablo, channeling darker emotions through art is powerful and valid. to tone down the grotesque while maintaining impact, consider: 1. selective detail - focus intense textures on focal points while letting other areas breathe 2. contrast through simplicity - pair complex horror elements with clean, minimal spaces 3. subtle color shifts - try desaturating some psychedelic elements to create hierarchy 4. symbolic horror - suggest darkness through metaphor rather than explicit imagery the goal isn't to diminish your expression, but to find the sweet spot where restraint amplifies impact. what aspects of your monsters carry the most emotional weight for you?

The angry expressions, teeth that seem ready to bite something, unpleasant liquids dripping from the teeth or body, and cloudy eyes are what best represent my feelings. Since the theme is set as monsters, I’m not sure how to express it more abstractly if it’s not a clear image.

those visceral elements you describe - the teeth, the drips, the clouded eyes - they're powerful symbols of inner turmoil. to abstract them while keeping their emotional punch, you could: - fragment these features, letting them emerge from geometric shapes - use texture and pattern to suggest teeth/drips rather than showing them directly - play with scale - make tiny details massive, or vice versa - experiment with negative space where the monster's absence tells the story - use motion and blur to create unsettling feelings without explicit horror think of it like poetry vs prose - both tell stories, but poetry works through suggestion and metaphor. what if your monsters lived in the shadows between recognition and abstraction?

Expressing fear without using scary elements or motifs is really challenging. It doesn’t have to be a monster, though. Could you give me an example?

think about a perfectly normal suburban house at twilight, but with all its windows dark except one. or a child's playground completely empty at noon. or a phone that rings once at 3am and stops. fear often lives in the space between what we expect and what we see. it's the empty chair at a dinner table that shouldn't be empty. the shadow that's slightly too long for the time of day. what interests you more - working with these subtle tensions or continuing with your current style?

They all seem like interesting concepts, but I really like the empty playground. It’s the kind of everyday thing that creates a sense of fear from the ordinary, something unsettling in daily life.

the empty playground has such potential. imagine: rusty swings moving slightly in still air, chalk drawings half-washed away by rain, a single red ball rolling without anyone pushing it. these elements hint at absence, at something that should be there but isn't. what if you created a series exploring these 'empty spaces' in everyday life? each piece could focus on a different scene where the horror comes from what's missing rather than what's shown.

I’ve been thinking about that too – a swing moving alone in an empty playground, or maybe a shadow on the ground where no one is. But the problem is, this concept is too common. It’s interesting, but something anyone can think of and draw. I want to emphasize technical elements or create things that no one has thought of. This is a piece I made yesterday. What do you think?
