It has been said that the human mind can imagine things a lot more detailed when it has to fill in the blanks.
Being shown something in plain view, our brains just process it as "something".
But when we are looking at something that is either censored, out of view, or concealed, our brains are boggled with the possibilities of what is being hidden - the imagination takes over and it can be "anything"!
That is why naughty images which are censored seem naughtier.
The off-screen monster which we can't see seems scarier.
The Christmas present which is wrapped seems more special.
With that being said...
Does that means if an image is offensive to someone, even though nothing is being shown, they are thinking more dirtier thoughts than others?
I have to admit that an image of lightly concealed female nude - using clothing or body positioning - can seem a little more erotic to me than a flat out photo of a naked woman.
For example:

So... does that mean this image of a redhead wearing a semi-transparent gown is more erotic to people who are already thinking very dirty thoughts?
Are they already associating her with another redhead that they have a obsession with that she happens to bear a passing resemblance to?
Could be...
... but that means the issues that are having is not with the image, but in their own mind.
BTW, I got another image deleted from the gallery today, so this is a kind of save point for this occurrence... let's see what happens now...
Let the deletion fun continue...

Head's up other artists, the new character under "special care" seems to be TyLee this round.
Not reposting this one on the blogspot because it was a commission.
If my clients want to repost their commission in their own gallery, they are free to do so.
No stress for me ^_^

Forced E-Retirement
This is just another nail in the coffin of my good old iMac.
Google has decided to retire any support for my reliable work-horse of a machine as of this week - and this is a pretty impact because of all the google-based sites and programs people routinely use.
Previously this year it was Skype and before that it was tumblr.
All the warning I got when it happened was a big middle-finger and F*** YOU from them when I tried to log in.
I am very reluctant to part with this computer because it was the first art-dedicated machine I bought with my money earned as an artist.
This planned obsolescence is crap because most updates are just feature
Decisions... decisions...
I have been on Deviantart for just over 10 years... wow.
I started as a lurker and after a couple of years decided to up my game and actually post stuff.
I was such a eager little art newbie that my ego exceeded my talent but I didn't know any better at the time.
Now it is more like the opposite with so many great artists here to inspire and drive me to get better and in turn people who actually say I inspire them.
Wow.
But now we got a whole lot more than Deviantart to rely on.
Facebook, twitter, instagram and tumblr allow us artists to find and share great art - in fact Deviantart allows us to upload to some these sites and more (goog
Becalmed - a personal update
Sorry for not being very active online lately but had to deal with a few things lately that never fails to take the wind out of my artistic sails when they happen.
My brother is staying at home right now and should soon be getting his skull back together in a couple of weeks. His rehabilitation is coming along well but he still acting very impulsive and reckless. I will feel better when he has a whole skull in place to protect his brain from injury.
My mom is fully recovered from her quadruple bypass surgery but she still has the issue which lead to her heart attack in the first place. Ablation took care of the messed up signals but now sh
Sketchy party - all spots are filled.
Thanks for all the requests people!
The first 9 spots have been paid for and the remaining people who have asked for a sketch commission should have already gotten their confirmation email from me.
From this point on any additional requests will be put on a standby list and will be notified if I can manage the extra workload comfortably.
