Most of you are aware, but maybe some are not, that this is not my main account. It is definitely rather specialized and geared toward a very specific audience, and as such is...boring? I mean, everything's more or less ideologically the same. Same style, same themes...the only place I really spice it up is medium, and even then it's just alternation between marker, digital, pencil and crayon!
The other side of the coin is not to see it as boring, but as beautiful because everything is clearly categorized to belong together. It is consistent, "this is my style".
Some of these works I'd really love to have in my main gallery. Heck, I do have some of them in my main gallery! But, for example, my two most recent Deviations are on this account only. I suppose this is a flaw in my own planning - if I drew normal pictures I could experiment with those styles, with the colored pencil outline and the crayons or the simplistic digital coloring, and post it to the main gallery without reservation. Instead, I put them here.
My main gallery seems to have gained a little bit of respect. Many of my close friends watch it, as well as some people I don't know personally who seem to have some standing in the art community. It's more professional, more complete. It shows more versatility in mediums, themes, and just...everything. I would merge the two galleries in an instant, if only I weren't so worried about what people thought of me.
This gallery houses works spawned from ideas and concepts I have held dear (and repressed) since childhood. I'm quirky, I know that. These pieces don't add to the "esteemed artist" facade, and thus are left here to stagnate as opposed to joining my "real" art.
It is remarkable what you can choose what you want to show the world and what you can keep hidden. I'm putting this out there. It's on the internet, I take credit for it. Heck, ask me in public if I am K.Matsuri, and I will own up to everything! But, I can't bring myself to merge this with my main gallery because I am afraid I'll ruin what I've got going for me. But this is me. These are my thoughts, odd as they may be.
If this was all you knew of my art, would you judge me?

I don't suppose the alter-ego self-portrait had anything to do with that?
