ocd tendency
🕑 Added 2021-08-08 05:45:40 +0000 UTCrecently been working on my anxiety with ocd tendencies, and apart of handling ocd thoughts is in part separating them from yourself, and exposing yourself to those thoughts. and thus : ocd monster
i designed mine to have a pointed face, like a needle, and a long winding body like how my anxiety feels and pans out. before getting to the tail where it explodes out, leaves bleeding (not literally. figuratively, emotionally).
although i dont think i initially thought of that last part in the creation process. it has long legs, or thats what i was thinking when i added the spines. im freaked out by long thin legs on bugs especially. on This (which i havent named yet) they are sort of just protruding from the body wherever fits. no real rule
the pink creature in the fourth image was from a dream i had 2014-15ish. where i mourned this little seahorse spider that was suffocating out of water and nobody would help and discouraged me from having it. i fondly think of her from time to time, i dont have the most vivid dreams but i was able to remember her clearly
thank you for reading :-D design notes and i plan on remaking the third picture eventually! i think coping and venting through art is something i would like to revisit.
