Painting and art have always been a huge interest of mine, ever since middle school. Living in San Diego means being surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in California and it has always helped inspire me.

Recently I've been trying to paint animals but I didn't have much inspiration. A visit to the zoo last week gave me just what I needed. I became enamored with Lemur's and I've been working on painting one for a few weeks now. So I thought I'd share my art with TL

Your painting skill is great.
Idk about your counting skill...
I see 3 in the picture and only 1 in your painting,,

Edit: And my reading skill is not great either...
Forget what I said above.

no the lemur itself is my muse not that specific image

also there is someone i discovered who goes around rating every single one of my blog posts a 1. a lot of my old blogs that were unrated are now 1 star

i probably banned them from livestream and they are very upset

I think that the slight frown on your lemur's face symbolizes that, despite being super fucking cool and popular and having everyone love you at every moment of your life, it doesn't always make you happy.

The use of only black and white symbolizes the gray that is the line between good and evil.
The overlapping lines shows that nobody, not even lemurs, are perfect. We just need to accept the fact that perhaps our faults are actually our strengths.

Like your use of black and white. It shows you aren't afraid to innovate in a puddle of souless artists abusing colour. A masterpiece, really.

Guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions. :/

No, there really isn't. I can't recall using a single 4chan meme in probably my entire time on TeamLiquid. In fact I only visit the anime and wallpaper forums a few times a week at most. If the humor seems 4chanesque I don't know what to say other than you're wrong.

Almost all of my recent blogs have been articles or progamer profiles and a few were meant to be "humorous" but that doesnt equal 4chan in the slightest
