Self made drawings, writing, art, music, and other forms of self expression created to cope with what gets us down.

We're on Lemmy! https://lemm.ee/c/arttocope

Welcome to arttocope! This is a place for people to share any drawings, pieces of writing, music, and any other forms of expression that they have created in order to cope with what gets them down.

This sub reddit by nature deals with sensitive material. Please be aware of this while browsing!

Please post whatever you like--It's your creation and very personal. We only accept art made by the user who is posting it, do not post other people's works!

We have very few guidelines here, as it seems antithetical to put guidelines on an art forum. But please do not post art created from blood or pictures of blatant self-harm. See discussion here and here

Self posts and link posts both accepted!

We encourage comments and discussion, so please let the artist know if their work had an effect on you!

Some user art is highlighted in these collections:

R/arttocope SWF Gallery

R/arttocope NSWF Gallery

R/arttocope Black & White

If you find any offensive, rude or malicious comments please don't hesitate to report them to the moderators. We try our best to moderate this subreddit but some things may be missed without your help. Repeat offenders or trolls will be banned.

We now feature some recommended subreddits here and we always welcome modmail.

Cruel.

Floating from the rafters,

Sacred noose of umbilical cord

Suspends me.

Oh vilified bastard

Crafted from cruelty -

Let’s watch you hang.


The sting of blood permeates;

The smell radiates.

We can sense

How unclean you are,

Victimised soul.


Let’s watch some heads roll.


Plucking butterfly wings,

Like petals from my veins;

Freeing fallen conscience,

Like tears

Fleeing from the shell,

The hollow, untamed.


Deficient in her eyes,

Worshipped vessel of life

Condemns me.

Oh insufficient failure

Born of insecurity -

Just let her scream.


The throne of scars shivers;

The stars just tremble.

They can’t know

How obscene you are,

Vulnerable soul.


It’s your head that must roll.


As you pluck butterfly wings,

Like petals from the vein,

Flowing

And showing the shards within,

Some tears will flee:

Run with the blood

From under the skin.

Oh cruelest soul,

Just let her be.

A photo manipulation I created named “Problème d’émotion”.

Created with 9 different photos of myself in my bathroom, edited on Photoshop.
