EMO! Hey goth boy...grow up. Just cause daddy touched you, it doesn't mean you have to try to be an individual. Get over this stupid art. You are a no talent. Also, grow a real goatee...or can you emo boy??

Artist Reply: To be honest with you... I think you're secretly in love with me. I also think that you're a closet fan of mine that considers me to be their greatest inspiration in life. Why else would you consistently come here? Because you can't get enough of my photo-realistic drawings!

Creep you make me want to vomit on your face.

Artist Reply: If you could... you would touch me. But Im Married... sorry little guy!

Emo! Hey lets draw a killer that would be so bad ass.

Artist Reply: Luckily, it *is* bad ass... Otherwise, why bother?

Very impressive subject matter. The textures are exceptional for pastel as a medium and hair is not easy to capture. Your portraiture is well articulated, as is the dedication you have spent on this piece. Even as a JPEG one can tell this was not do in haste. So, I ask you, why all of the negative criticism?

if you put any effort into this garbage??? Get another hobby...you suck!

Artist Reply: Thanks! I did this specifically for you!

Anonymous Guest 15 Jan 2010

Uneducated? Have you seen yourself? You dont strike me as a doctorate type?? And as for your "art", it is short sighted and glib; to say the least. Kid, give up - especially on yourself. And shave that stupid peach fuzz off your face, it looks STUPID!!

Artist Reply: Again... you critique yet bring nothing to the table in the process. You're simply a sad teenager (read: child) who makes himself (or herself, but your more then likely a male) think he's so much better by squirting off your childish critiques/rants. You have no page here which means; a: you have no talent whatsoever, or b: your envy of other's art overwhelms you to the point of the aforementioned childish critiques. I'll go ahead and choose both a and b for you! Save you the hassle! By all means, continue your childish rants, they're very entertaining! Now if you were older, and your brain was developed more, and you had something constructive to say about my art or an intelligent critique about my style and not what the subject is, I'd definitely listen but you right now, you cannot provide any of the above, because your too young to understand and know what art is. Which leads to this: You're a typical hater. You have nothing to say until you see something you don't like, then suddenly you do. No, I didn't mean hater, you're a sheep. A follower if you will. In closing... I hope you've been practicing! I'd really love to see your art! Cheerio
Artist Reply: and another thing... it wouldn't surprise me if you were from FPC.

All of your work sucks and only your friends are trying to pep you up. Give up. The "EMO" comment guys summed it up well.

Artist Reply: Uh oh! Another uneducated follower of anonymous critics who bring nothing to the table to back up their critiques... Get back to me when your older, or better yet, keep coming and commenting. Things would be so much easier if anonymous users had any type of artwork to back something up with the age old "your work sucks". Truth is, I know jealousy boils your blood because you have no talent, other wise you would back up your opinion on my work. I say this, keep practicing! Someday you may be just as good as me.

"Painting Charles Manson is no different than painting Jesus Christ." WOW, profoundly ignorant! Kid, grow up! EMO is right, ok you're different, an individual, no one understands you. Crawl under a rock with that crap!

Artist Reply: Ignorant? And criticizing me for painting something YOU don' t like isn't?? There is nothing ignorant about what I said unless your a narrow minded individual, which you obviously seem to be. I also don't understand how painting Manson makes me "emo" either. Not to mention "kid", I'm interested to see what type of art (if any) you bring to the table. The nerve of you anonymous posters is astounding.

Anonymous Guest 05 Oct 2009

Every one of your pictures represent hate or evil?? Must say a lot about you...I agree with the person smashing you..just another EMO trying to wow us with how GOTH and dark he is...get a life guys!!

Artist Reply: Every picture I do represents hate and/or evil? I'm not sure your looking at my gallery or not but Manson is the only picture I've done that truly represents evil. As for me "trying to wow with how GOTH and dark" I am? I'm 30 years old. The days of trying to wow and impress people have been over for a long time... to add to that, I was never goth or dark so... The art world is in such a sad state when pictures people paint or draw offend so many people. Painting Charles Manson is no different than painting Jesus Christ. Its art, not propaganda. In any case... that is your opinion, just needed to express mine. Thank you for commenting.

You should do a painting that represents our present time. Our world today. Where do you think we're going? ;) Peace my friend.

Anonymous Guest 29 Sep 2009

I never knew how talented you are. JM never talked to me about it. Thats 2 of my friends that are amazing artist. RY is the other one. Charles Manson posessed a strong spirital presencence within that I don't think he was even fully aware of at the time of his crimes. I believe that he is now however. Unfortinetly he used it for evil. A lot of people were hurt because of it. Not only the victums but also the people he influenced to do his deeds. My interpretation of your painting is that he is represented a parisite (One of many) feeding on an open wound within the fabric of our natural spirital world. A world that is there but most of us are blind to it. One in which is very sick from the generations of such parisites that have come before and since.

Artist Reply: Thank you! It means a lot

great work mike..its art.. wut is the big deal on who u draw? its ART n its wonderful..keep up the great work n draw whoever u want...ima send u my kids pics

Artist Reply: Thanks. I never understood how people complain so much about art when there are much more important issues to worry about in every day life than complaining about the subject of a piece of art, who in this case happens to be part of culture (thanks in no small part to the media who have plastered his image so much that its burnt into our minds).

Anonymous Guest 28 Sep 2009

Excellent picture. Don't let that other anonymous douchebag get you down. Great work. BTW... we are also talking about a country that wants to make 9/11 a holiday.

Artist Reply: Thank you!! Excellant point too!

Anonymous Guest 28 Sep 2009

Using arbitary excuses like,"well, he did it too," is a better cop-out than any. I hope you or your family does not suffer a loss like they did and some young punk glorifies their murder as; " He was totally cool!" Last point please...I take back the word talent, I misused it in the heat of making my point. Average, and poor composition are more fiting adjectives, that describe your poorly shaded pieces.

Artist Reply: If you don't like it, why bother complaining? Why not move on? As for a "young punk" who thinks Charles Manson is "cool", are you referring to me? Did I say he was cool? Please point it out to me because I simply cannot find it. Average and poor composition huh? That's a matter of opinion, one which I share with you by the way but, I appreciate your criticism. I don't know why but something tells me you have an agenda here but by all means, comment as much as you'd like. The problem here would be you not commenting, then that would tell me you really don't like my art.

Anonymous Guest 27 Sep 2009

I am sure Tate, Hinman, Crow, and the LaBianca family would love to see how you glorify a their killer. Try Hitler next, or maybe Binladin. Thanks for wasting your talent.

Artist Reply: I'm glad you could make it! Thanks for stopping by! By the way... I'm sure those families are just as happy that Vincent Bugliosi has made a living off of Manson by writing books about him. Again, thank you! Bad criticism is no criticism.

excellent likeness, you've captured his crazed look to perfection. well done!!!
