Yes and no, I'd say that artist have the goal to elicit an emotional reaction from the viewer. Its up to the artist to decide what emotion to go through. Fear and disgust are two very possible (and easy) emotions to draw out. Picking a theme (or emotion you want to evoke) for your art and focusing in on that is a better way to get your work to click deeper with the viewer and yourself. Some people chose cute things, I think that it's probably easier to make something overly cute then horrifying, but honestly, the emotion every artist wants to re-create is awe. That is where you are right in a sense, having the talent and skill to create something that leaves the viewer frozen in time for a second is a very admirable goal. I chose horror not for my lack to create other emotions but I found it was the emotion I liked to experience most aside from awe, my obvious final goal

I think subject and tone need to be divorced here, you can depict animals in a horrific way, architecture can be intimidating and humanity can be cruel, so long as the end goal is to evoke these feelings from a viewer

So, instead of inability, I'd sooner say its easier for me to get a reaction out of people with this type of work, and that's why I keep coming back to it
