"Ylikomi makes art"

Go check out my new website where I host a digital art gallery ,art blog and it also has information about the artist and booking info.

Im part of a interesting project and I get to draw two gorgeous fetish models as sexy cartoon characters.

I got super inspired by the sweet submissive model "Milla CeeDee" and came up with this illustration.

I cant wait to start working on the other character today!

I don't draw events from my life. But I do draw emotions ,struggle and fears. Usually they are the ones I cant explain. It is a interesting process to start drawing your fears and shadows in a way that lets your intuition lead you. It usually ends up to me understanding myself better. Its a fucking tragedy to face facts. I hate that shit. But after all I guess the people who told me that I cant live in constant escapism were right. Uhg, hate to admit that. And now that Im more aligned than ever I am comfortable with sitting with my feelings and problems. Im not running away from anything anymore. Dare I say Im quite in touch with reality and I have created one that I do love. I get to fufil my creativity every damn day. Life is good. I just wish my body , nervous system would realise that aswel. Until then Im grateful to have a tool like drawing to vom!t my problems to a blanc piece of paper. Birthing something to life out of thin air.

Im usually just as surprised as the viewer by the end result of my art. I draw those subconcious fears, shadows and desires that I can only express by art. If I could verbalize thees bizarre pictures I would. But I love to leave some thinking to do for the viewer because every person has a different, very personal story to attach to art. One art work can tell as many stories as it has viewers.

Taiteilijan päiväkirja;

Mä tunnen kaikki tunteet potenssiin sata. Tätä sairautta verrataan tuskaltaan kolmannen asteen palovammoihin.

Ehkäpä siksi mulla tulee usein vastaan tilanne jossa mun sanat ei riitä. Eli vaihtoehdot on joko a)sytyttää koko maailma tuleen tai b)piirtää

Valitsen onneksi vaihtoehdon b. Mun päässä ei liiku käytännössä mitään kun alan maalaan ja piirtään paperille mun pahaa (tai välillä euforisen hyvää) tunnetta. En lainkaan suunnittele, kontrolloi tai määrittele mitä paperille tulee. Mun aivot on tyhjät eli se on tunne joka ohjaa mun oikeassa kädessä olevaa sivellintä. Yllätyn itse yhtä paljon töideni lopputuloksesta kuin muutkin.

Jumalattarelle kiitos siitä, että mulla on keino "handlata" mun intensiivisiä ja usein sietämättömiä tunnetiloja.

"Se, että ottaa silmän käteen ja katsoo omaa järjettömyyttään saattaa ajaa ihmisen hulluksi."

"Really looking at your own insanity might drive you crazy"

I got inspired by someone who so passionately talked about the fucking amazing and orgasmic feeling you get when you listne to music that just makes love to your ear canals, driving you to climax until you just reach full eargasm.

New project under works. I have been loveing magenta&pink with green lately. Its the pure contrast that makes Me enjoy that combo. So pilari, so opposite, so wrong that its right. And those polar opposite compliment each other beautifully.
