Hellhound, the world (another very old acrylic painting)
What the hell am I doing here?
In my teenage years I met some people who I instantly connected with. It was an amazing experience, but at the same time I noticed how I did not fit in before and how ill at ease I really felt with most other humans. I often asked myself, what I was doing on this weird earth and what was the purpose of it all (so, essentially not much different than nowadays :-P).
This painting was inspired by these feelings. The world seemed pretty brutal and upside down to me, and also inaccessible (hence, the hellhound guarding it). Back then I invented a new star sign - the mincer/meat chopper which in German is called "meat wolf". That's how grinding this life sometimes felt... Painting made it much better though!
By the way, if you like my art, you can find some pieces on products on redbubble. I appreciate any way you want to support me, also by upvote/resteem of course! :-)

And yep, grinding life can feel pretty daunting at times... I'm glad painting helps you cope with it :)

What am I doing on this burning earth? I'm looking for a new home somewhere else. This is what I can read from there. Oh, and that grin.. not sure what I think about it :) Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your interpretation! It's very interesting to hear what you think about it :-)
