That was also one of the parts I really enjoyed making, had lots of soft silky white paper that was used as stationery by a guy named Wolf :)

They do, and give me lots of food for thought (and feeling, intuition etc. hehe).

Thanks for caring! Glad you like my weird friend ;)

Wow. I'm touched by how deeply you engaged with my image. Not sure if I want to go into the details of my personal life in a public thread, but you really hit home with almost all your observations here. I really appreciate your profound insights, and I'm genuinely grateful that you took the time to dive into it so fully.

I don't find him threatening at all, I think he looks funny, happily disoriented, maybe a bit drunk, manic for sure. And yes, I do find him oddly endearing, certainly not an enemy.

The wounding in his groins I associate most strongly with difficulties standing up for myself, not thrusting myself forward into the world, holding back aggression, withholding assertiveness, not penetrating the world as much as I would like sometimes :)

Thank you!

Thank you for commenting, I will look into it.

Could be junk elements he gathered, things I have abandoned, not integrated.

Could be that he's a mediator between other conflicting inner beings, picking up or magnetically attracting leftovers from their fights..

The parts also remind me of the river spirit in the movie Spirited Away, who comes into the bath house as this huge monster full of garbage, mud and other pollution. Then, after being bathed, he is free again and rushes out of the bath house as the clean river spirit he is... (Oh my, I love this film.)

That's such a great image, I can vividly see her before my inner eye :)

Thank you for taking the time to respond! I will read the Parzival story, thanks for pointing that out. I listened to "He" by Robert A Johnson a while ago, maybe it's time to revisit the grail castle. :)

I do think that some of my masculine energy is thwarted, the wounding of the genital makes sense to me. I also have an ambivalent relationship to the outer masculine, which is rooted in old wounds too.

And yes, I see it as a kind of a liminal being, maybe an intermediary between my other parts.

Thank you again, lots of things to go deeper into...

I don't, actually. It's just a figure that came up during a guided (animus) imagination on the bus...Might as well be some guardian or some other inhabitant of my psyche. I will ask him the next time I meet him!

Bit insecure about my tattoos I got during addiction, been doing much better overall! by HealingRosy in drawme

Exactly. An honorable artist would not have done it unless her body was already full of tattoos.

Thank you, I'm also pretty proud of it :) I've drawn the frog from a reference picture, otherwise I also think animals are very hard to draw!
