Just found out my Twitter account has limitations attributed to it and is possibly shadowbanned. Hooray. I am making bsky my main hub, but I only have a small audience here, would you kindly help a brother out and spread the word? I'm a grimdark pony artist and make fine art inspired artwork.

Nicola Samorì, I absolutely adore his approach to art and his mastery of matter. The way he accumulates hundrends of hours into a painting only to then "destroy" it in one quick gesture speaks to me, and the way he treats and molds elements from art history is both inspiring and frightening.

I didn't mean to disappear, I wanted to balance irl and online presence but I am awful at it. I love my friends and I would never dare hurting them. I truly mean it, and if I ever did anything that upset you, I am sorry.

(Not sure why this is in Italian but I will respond no matter what because this is important to me) I didn't mean to ghost anybody, I know it's hard to believe but I'm just really bad at keeping in touch. I log in on Discord and read as much as I can almost every day, but rarely have much to say.

Ask me or tell me stuff, anything that's on your mind, it's anonymous.

I want my friends to know that I love them dearly, I really do. I just don't see a good ending to all of this. Sorry.

Fast forward over a decade and a half later and I'm still here, still living this dreadful life in terror of my own shadow, eaten from the inside by anxiety and anguish every day. It never got better, sometimes it just doesn't.

When I was 14 I made a pact with myself that I wouldn't live past 18 years. And why would I? All I've ever known is mental anguish and abandon, it's not like this life had ever showed me any redeeming thing, any single thread of hope from which I could hang safely.

I rarely speak up about myself, I don't like to put my problems under a limelight. I've been fighting against my own mind for so long I've almost lost track, but I've been under psychiatric therapy for over a decade now and things never seem to improve, on the contrary, it all seems to get worse.

This is treated as a big reveal, a punch in your guts that's supposed to make you feel for him. The episode came out in 2011, I was 16 when I watched it. I remember stopping in my track and going: "wait, people are supposed to be happy..?"

I think this is where I realized things were really bad.

I remember this one South Park episode where the main character, Stan, develops depression and it sorta landslides into his whole family breaking apart. At some point Stan's parents are fighting and his father, Randy, when asked why he's acting strange and desperate, responds: "because I'm unhappy".

All my art as Retsuslaire from my archives, since 2011. Includes doodles, wips and experimentations. Themes explored range mostly between grimdark, gore and ponies. Most of it is bad and some of it is unfinished, enjoy!
