Artist Used LSD And Drew Herself For 9 Hours To Show How It Affects Brain

aah! this explains alot! so all the anime characters are drown when the artists are on LSD! cool :D

I can barely text while on this stuff... that is impressive

Beautiful stuff. I've only drawn tripping once - usually I have to be outside. I can't stand being inside when I'm on acid.

So take LSD and you become an X-men.... that explains a lot.

the one at 8h 45 mins is my favorite <3

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds!!!

Just drawing oneself for ?9 hours might have a similar effect (just kidding)

some next lvl alien s**t

Horrible!

is it me or she gets better on it?

First, amazing. Second, where do you get real LSD these days???

What is the artists name

Is LSD a drug?

Bad trip. Change dealer.

well this article made me realize.. it's not that I don't know how to draw, it's just I do it like I'm 8h into LSD trip.

Wooooohhhhh

Does it really last that long? O.O I wanna try too, to see how my brain turns out to be, because it looks fantastic but I don't feel like taking LSD ever again

I read an article in Mondo 2000, years ago in which some of the early pioneers in computers (in the S.F. Bay Area) said that they didn't think they could have done what they did without having taken LSD. I can't run that article down now, but I do remember reading it. Here is a quote by R.U. Sirius (of Mondo 2000). "The convergence, or rather the undercurrent of psychedelic consciousness in the computer scene in the 80s and 90s was not an isolated phenomenon, I have interviewed many luminaries — like Philip Glass and John Allen of Biosphere 2 — who admitted that LSD or other highs had given them the inspiration for breakthrough work."

Seems dumb to me.

if she can draw such paintings on high, what that proves ? take lsd before paintings

cool

Fascinating. Wish I had thought of art while tripping back when I did such things.

Nice! But it would be even nicer if the girl posted her after impressions on the drawings

Some of my music sounds like it on acid but I don't dabble into drugs, maybe I'm flash backing...

2 1/4 hours looks like jennifer lawrence

The conflict ion... I dunno... I don't think I'd want to be in the same world this girl was in while her drawings are beautiful I'd probably be really freaked out to experience them... The ones without pupils or irises are particularly disturbing... but I do like 8:45... the conflict ion...

Polish painter Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz commonly known as Witkacy did this in the early 1920s. And it was more spectacular. Many of his paintings were annotated with mnemonics listing the drugs taken while painting a particular painting, even if this happened to be only a cup of coffee. So this is nothing new and nothing special ;)

this explains a lot! so all anime characters are drawn when the artists are on LSD!!

What a waste of an article. We already know this. BTW most creative folks have some form of mental illness line bipolar disorder & self medicate with drugs or alcohol. Usually kills them sooner or later. Drugs can be addictive for some and devastate families included. Fortunately if you're rich, white & artistic you have an arsenal of drugs at your disposal. I'm serious. Why do artists have to put drugs on a pedestal like its a necessary evil or cool? I think artists can be inspired without drugs or other substances. If not you need to treat your depression or bipolar disorder.
