Been trying for ages to find out more about this artist. I talked to on Deviantart back in August, a girl from Tokyo, Japan. The most bizarre Expressionist artist I had ever met here... She would upload a couple of drawings at a time, and then delete them all less than a day later, uploading and deleting multiple times over. Her artwork was so full of emotion and confusion, almost to the point of total madness. It was clear from what I was able to translate that she was going through some deep internal struggle.

Needless to say, I luckily managed to save some of her drawings before she deactivated her profile and left without a trace anywhere on the web. There were also some mp3 recordings from her equally strange Soundcloud profile, before that too was deleted. I'll post a link to those if anyone is interested.

She suffered from very bad anxiety and feelings of isolation, but instead of allowing her negative thoughts to overwhelm her, she used these emotions as a tool in her drawings, as a way of releasing all of her energy. She said it was a very therapeutic way of getting rid of all of her sadness and frustration, and effective in calming herself down.

She unfortunately left DA, and deleted all of her artwork from literally everywhere on the web. However, I was a big fan of her work, and I saved a lot of her work to archive it. It's extremely rare that I see an artist who draws with such vivid energy.

KrsUic was her dA profile back in 2014/2015, but she deleted that, and all her work from it. She had various other profiles, none of them lasted more than a week or two before she deleted them.

Very few artists can paint something that literally makes you feel like you're going insane if you look at it long enough. Something about it just feels so horribly... Real. Like an actual glimpse through the eyes of a psychopath.

I would say that it could actually be something like that. Maybe her drawings were an attempt to 'escape' the overwhelming pain and anxiety in her mind. Even the act of her deleting all her work might have been her particular way of erasing those memories from her consciousness.

I'm just a fan of KrsUic's art. It's infuriating how difficult artists like that are to track down, but I don't really blame them. I suppose they must be used to people either hating their art, or they are very critical of themselves.

I personally think artists like this are some of the most interesting types of creative individual. The fact that it's so challenging, makes it all the more alluring to trace info about them.

I'm really only have a taste for technically proficient storytelling/world-building oriented illustration and drawn porn, but there's an aesthetic charm in the mspaint anon's work that tickles my taste buds in ways it never gets tickled, despite their lack technical proficiency. Also I'm not gonna lie: the mystery and anonymity surrounding his work is a cherry on top, if a bit frustrating at times.

>>2774301
I can honestly say that I am interested in her work and its overall aesthetic, even though she abuses the black/red/white combo too much for my taste.

However I don't think there is anything left to for anyone to see here, if you know what I mean. I actually think she's dead now, judging by the kind of work she's put out.

You might honestly be right there. If a person's art is truly a reflection of their own personality and imagination, then she is probably dead inside long ago. It's sad, but kinda beautiful at the same time.

I'll leave the whole archive here (just under 100 more drawings), if anyone wants to view the rest of her art I've collected since August.

Interesting stuff, thanks anon. I have major depressive disorder, and seeing people use their negative thoughts towards positive ends is reassuring for me. If drawing these was therapeutic for her it's possible she stopped because she's doing better. I usually look down on this kind of "edgy teen" stuff, but I respect it more when it presumably comes from an actual emotionally distressed teen trying to cope. It's intriguing she'd delete these so quickly after sharing them. It seems like this really was some ephemeral therapy for her.

In voice 1 she says ;
"nande... kora cha taio?" (なんで... ほら ちゃt あいお?) meaning either "Why is it like this" or something...

In voice 3, she mentions something like;
"doko mari ga wa genjit tsu nan deska?" (どこ まり が わ げんじt つ なん でsか) meaning "Where is my name?"
"doko mari ga wa yume nan deska?" (どこ まり が わ ゆめ なん でsか?) meaning "Where is the dream wondering?"

What I absolutely love about those is that they are simply made with 3 colors with total opacity: black, red, white. I could see some sort of gradient/shading only on 1 or 2.

This is what I really, really like. This is the technique I'd like to study, 100% minimalistic, making some depth not by value (like human eye usually does), but by lines and good composition.

I have wondered about the moral implications of saving her work, and uploading/archiving it after she deleted her profiles.

It's just one of those weird kinds of situation. The artist clearly put a lot of raw emotion and personal pain into the drawings, so much so that they almost "drip" with energy, only for her to erase them completely, and I want to respect her decision for doing that.

But I also want to know that everything she made wasn't for absolutely nothing. That outcome just feels so overwhelmingly bleak and sad. Her art style is incredibly grotesque and chilling, yet the composition is beautiful. These specific kinds of artist are rare, and they fascinate me the most. By sharing these works with others, I hope that her mysterious nature would be enough to get people interested. At least on 4chan, I'm more likely to get people's honest reactions to her work.
