FLASHBACK: Re-Open It.

Hii... everyone, I'm Humansleep. This time I want to post my work again in the Alien Art Hive community. And here I will also share a work process whether it's drawing or sketching that I will later do as an effort to be seen and appreciated.
FLASHBACK: Re-open It.
Introductions and a short story about solitude in darkness:
This time I'm making something that might drain a lot of my energy and mind, which is trying to make a story that might have several parts that will continue in it. And maybe sometime I will make it a book or my first comic that I will release later.
This is the first moment and experience in my life that I will realize as much as possible, which aims to resolve and heal all the inner wounds of my dark past. And, to be honest... I've been thinking about this for a long time, but it's only now that I'm able to create and express it, and maybe I'll give myself some space more often.
I tried to get back into the dark and silent room, and I accidentally saw and found a small child who was always crying inside.
That room has also been sealed off for years. And this time I tried to open it again and tried to enter the dark room again. It turned out that it looked very chaotic in there. And there was a little boy who always cried in there, when I tried to approach him, I just realized it. That he was me in the past who had long been trapped alone and ended up living in there and he also looked very dull and rusty, not only that he had also been overgrown and covered by various kinds of wild plants and strange creatures that had no idea where he came from.
This drawing is made with ink on paper, using a pencil.
Here the step:
Sketch:

And this is also the first time I didn't use an outline as a border, I directly applied texture, detail and contrast to my drawing.



In this part of the process, I forgot to take a normal picture, and I only had time to take a picture like that.
in this part, I made several entities with eye shapes and 1 strange creature, as an image of the inhabitants in the passage of a dark gate.





This is all I can say for right now, sorry if there are wrong words or my typing is not perfect.
starting from the prolonged fatigue that I often feel lately, then I pondered and thought on that quiet night βis there something wrong or is there something unfinished with me?β... suddenly implied in my mind, it said there was a dark thing that might be unresolved and even completely untouched. I tried to meet it and tried to get back into it.
I hope that I can clean up all the wounds from the chaos of that dark and messy situation and get back to healing.
Thank you for taking the time just to stop by and see my work, and see you in my next work. π½π
