I saw this contest created by @stellabelle on twitter for her Gigatura project, the prompt was to draw your monster, a good prompt always gets me motivated. I thought about it for a bit and took it to mean metaphorically, what is my personal Monster?

Ultimately it's my thoughts and self-doubts.

I realize it's very unproductive and contributes nothing to my life but that loop of, what if I had done this or that differently, could I be in a better position now? Probably not and I don't have a time machine so it doesn't really matter in the end... Sifting through my memories and analyzing all my decisions with the ability to have hindsight is unfair and will not change anything!

I attempted to personify this with my monster having dark thoughts in what is otherwise a beautiful and colorful reality.

Here is the full art:

Excellent work, we are all internally a surrealist work, we have to be like Salvador Dali. Know what we do and understand ourselves before others do.

If I have to guess based on the paint its clear who is the monster walking by, someone sitting at a ledge just looking at the monster moving along but in the back is hunted by something else, even with all the colors it still scary, nice drawing

Wow, a lot of layers in this one, I see someone sitting at a window and someone in the back of the room standing in a door! The monster looks scary but also kind of sad ... a bit out of place between all those beautiful colors and flowers.

I really like it <3
Good luck for the contest!!
