Guess the meaning behind this drawing. Pencil on Paper.

[chickadddee]

Really there could be many meanings. My first thought was "loss of innocence".

[crystallineblue]

Wanting to be childish as an adult but forcing yourself to be mature and trying to repress those urges.

[Lecarpitrondookmarriot]

becoming an adult is lobatamy to your inner child. I really enjoy everyones takes on this too

[lyonsla]

Your creativity is outstanding, keep thriving!

[NptyNpeNpe]

The external pressures of the world squeezing out joy and happiness.

As an artist, it reminds me of how, if you're not careful, you can lose yourself and forget how to "play" with your artistic expression. Especially if you delve into realism or hyperrealism.

Our inner child flowing through us but we can’t share it or show it to anyone.
Repressed feelings

[mloberh]

I love the symphony of light and shadow in your amazing artwork and
I am somehow torn between watching how you are drawing and what you are drawing.

I guess this drawing symbolises the immaturity of humans:
Hiding who they are behind masks ( roles) and unaware of their lack of thinking and development they keep themselves needy children = little ducks with empty eyes.


For me playfulness, ease and creativity comes from our heart /soul if we are connected to life (and our soul) and this has more to do with unlimited space and inner elements of nature behind self- restricting thoughts and feelings.

I would prefer to symbolize "the inner child" as seed in my hand or heart.

Maybe your drawing is a metaphor for our
thoughts, feelings or wishes that we are holding back...

Or you don´t have a conscious meaning, behind this drawing but the idea of it and whatever we guess, it reflects us not your drawing.

👏 Fantastic drawing. See no evil, speak no evil...???? But the duck doesnt fit in with that suggestion.🤔

"Can't let the inner child interact with cruel world" ❤❤❤

[anabelaramos]

A lost child that can't or doesn't want to speak, hear or see.
A man that hides himself and wishes to go back in time, to innocence.

"Ooops! What comes out of my mouth?! I try to keep it inside... It happens all the time!"

[FeralZeniga-xdpd]

" Silence maturity" sounds fitting.

[jodders]

I'm rubber ducked if I know 😁 Great work as always though!

[PrasannaaB-pg]

What type of pencil yo used your drawing 🧐

[butterflygroundhog]

The themes are reminiscent of childhood, suffocation, silence, loss of sense. I'd say the topic is "collapsing due to the prescriptive expectations of society on adulthood".

"What the Duck is going on with my head " am i close 😊

Maybe the men don't wanna cry :( firstly he covered his mouth with his hand to stop crying, secondly he covered his eyes to stop tears but the truth is that his mind is crying 😢
