Lost in your broken words forever,
lies buried my dreams in your dead end,
blood splattered across all of my hope,
turning peach blossoms into stains of torment.

Materials: watercolour, pencils, ink, real blood

it's very beautifully put -but really your remark is kind of racist:pretty much all of east Asia(south Korea, Malaysia,Thai land etc.etc.) uses art like that but you just put down it as chinese

Your work is beautiful and I can feel your pain, but please know that your blood does not have to be a part of your work to make it impressive - not only does it hurt you physically, but the blood will change color and texture on the artwork itself.

It looks lovely. The kanji is a nice touch--adds emphasis, like how past art and contemporary art go well together.

Holy snap! Amazing piece of work! How long did this take you? And you used your own blood?! You are one serious artist! LOL Amazing colors and design. Is that Kanji or something in Chinese?
