Artist's Comments

this stamp means something to me so here's the explanation
if u simply search suicide on dA or generally the internet
..looks pretty huh?
it's also a load of shit
i dont mean to say i dont think it's good artwork
a lot of it tends to look amazing and it takes talent
but i just dont think it should be glamorised

that doesn't go for everything
presenting a state of mind through a girl jumping from a building or having her look down or holding a suicide note or whatever else is one thing, yes? but having someone with slit wrists or a bullet mark to the head lying gracefully on the floor is something else.

it's just my opinion, you're entitled to your own

and i'm sorry if this stamp offends anyone
the last images are of real suicides, so i tried to make them flash by quickly. if this bothers anyone then i apologise, let me know.


feel free to use
enjoy

You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?"
:iconjysella:
YES YES YES, THANK YOU! This is a big problem I have with a lot of art on dA and the Internet – in fact, I recently wrote a journal on it. Same with art about SI, really.

This is your opinion and a valid point we should never glamourise suicide OR make it look easy because lots of people think it is.
I think that people often dont see it as permanant that sounds silly but it seems to be true.
Aweomse stamp, thanks:)

i agree wholeheartedly.

but also, theres a mindset that if you die young you die pretty.

"live fast die young and leave a beautiful corpse"

my friend hung himself... and it was beautiful in the worst of ways. he looked like he was sleeping. that is NOT glamour. not something people should want to recreate for all the world to see.

i really dont think people will understand until they see it in real life (which i hope most wont ever have to go through)

I totally agree with you ... they make it look so simple ... and its soo unrealistic.
Pills: you can get all swollen.
Gun to the Head: Bloody ... very.
Hanging yourself: your body looks ... um how to say it ... GROSS??
Drowning: your skin turns white and transluscent ... ew! Slitting your wrist: More blood!

I really agree with what you said. Love the stamp.
Keep 'em comin' girl. The world needs to know.

:heart:
:+fav: of course.
Thank you.
