The clown is like, his eyes show regrets, sorrow, sadness, but the smile, the smile shows madness, madness from all the stress and fustration, he doesnt want to be like that but, he is pushed to the point where, its pushed to the place where it would do anything evil, messed up...XD, yup, thats what i think, hope i win XD
WOW!! that is an amazing Painting! like no other. when i was like 5 i watched that movie. and I WAS TERRIFIED by sewers for a long long time. so anyway. its spectacular! just WOW im awestuck!
well. ur right. we always are afraid of our imaginationg and by that i mean the creepy faces and images that we creat in our mind and movies. well, we are scared of the fantasy and not of the reality. the humans themselves. us.
well. people do bad stuff such as murder etc. which is in the really life but not inour imagination. (we are afraid of imagination and not reality.) love ur paintings. love them!
Also i slept roud my friends the other night and watched this horror film and i cant rememer the name but these kids were in this house and this man appeared behnd them when they were at top of stairs i couldnt watch any more i was so freaked out because it was night and pitch black
I remember when my big brother scared me so bad i ran screaming into the living room for 5 minutes straight because i watched Dr.Who with the scary freezing angels and he jumped out from behind the door with a clown mask on and got stuck :p this was when i was 9 or 10 and now im 12 so that was the scariest movie for me Dr.who with the angels
I love it. I havent been on youtube much lately. but after watching this i will be on more. Im glad i subscribed to your channel awhile back. Im thinking of going to art school to paint, and you inspire me :)
Very scary. I saw an interview of Stephen King on Amazon. He said he had just finished writing "IT" when he was flying somewhere on a plane. All of the sudden a clown got on the plane and sat down beside him. No ordinary clown. It was Ronald McDonald and he sat down and lit a cigarette.
That Was my Fav Drawing You Have Done. I Am Of It Myself. I Am An Arisist To. I Love Just Geting Out A Blank Peice Of Paper, A Sharpie And Just Going Wild. Its Amazing To Me How Littlest Things CAn Become Somthing Amazing.
I remember when I saw that movie. It was morning, and I was at a friend's house, and I got sooo happy when my mother arrived early because I didn't have to finish watching it. We also ate amazing cranberry muffins. yummy yummy in my tummy.
Ever been to Venice? Some of the best masks used for elegant masquerade parties you'll ever see. Using masks allowed one to play out a fantasy & not be judged. Once you step over that line nothing is taboo. Interacting as/with "strangers" adds risk & excitement. Clowns have magic to draw us in without speaking. We are left to interpret their pain & joy. A dark side that knows no limits. Terror is unleashed when fear floods our minds. Hearts race, nerves tingle and our breath is stolen. Booooooo!
The last thought I had was that we have nothing to fear but ourselves. If clowns make us afraid it is because they remind us of what we most fear within our own being. What is that? Fear of letting loose and being so crazy that we fall into a psychotic maelstrom which propels us away from the last vestiges of sanity we thought worth clinging to, until, at last we truly can look ourself in the face for one fleeting, beautiful minute. Perhaps that's it.
OMG VAL AMAZING .. I got goosebumps.. cus I totally only remember that scene from IT as well. Except I was the wierd kid that scared her other friends by jumping on the sewer grate yelling IT IT IT IT and everyone else running away.
Val, really excellent painting... I love the floating canvas, it falls right in to the theme... some may ask why, to them I quote IT who's talking to the kid when he's in the sewer:
"They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too! "
I love the floating canvas. There are people that see clowns almost as creatures from another planet. I've always seen them as entertainers giving it all to make people laugh; never getting rich but living the life they have chosen.
Wow, it's fun to see how much people want a poster of your painting ^^ See how talented you are!
When you said you were going to make a clown, I never thought it could be so beautiful and scary! Maybe will I be scared of clowns after seeing this ;P
something about the clown mask and the box and maybe the tissue paper make it look - to me like a dog wearing the mask in a box.
I love the way you painted the eyes if this clown. To be honest I have always really liked clowns, and they haven't really ever terrified me. This one is definitely creepy! But I like them at the circus! People and the thought of ghosts and spirits scare me the most. And of course studying for Physics gives me the creeps too! Love you Val Your work is always wonderful!
the blue black clown is he from the blue? or from the black? or is he just a circle traveler who will be back to wherever if you merely wait the proper amount of circle time? or not, depending on which way he is facing, or you are looking. and who's to say which is good or bad black or blue, blue or black for in this infinite universe is it not possible that under the differing light of a far away sun your black will be blue and your blue will be black?
I've never been scared of clowns but they have always had a creepiness to them that I could never put my finger on. And your painting depicts that creepiness that has always made me get goosebumps when watching movies with clowns. My favorite movie that featured a clown was Definitely IT Pennywise was always eerie and the scene with the little kid by the sewer in the rain still makes me jump :D
when i was little me and my mom watched gremlins. those little creatures replaced everything i used to be afraid of. instead of thinking there was a boogieman in my closet i thought there would be a pile of those little gremlins waiting to get me. every shadow every bump in the night i thought was a gremlin.
'Don't Look Under the Bed'. When a child stopped believing in their imaginary friend, the friend would turn into a boogeyman creature that would torment their child. The only way they could get you was to hide under the bed and grab you at night. At one part , it was said that the only way you would be safe was to cover your head while you slept. The first time I saw this movie, I was 6 years old and I slept with the sheets over my head for almost a year, even in the blistering hot summer!
the eyes are so deep and piercing!!! woahhh i am scared and will sleep with kitty cats tonite! you match up perception to vision to canvase (as to what i believe) to EXACTLY what you were trying to convey. i've bouth your stuff on deviant art before (bye-bye duckie..and more) but this one is serious and shows a CLEAR message. thanks Valentinaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The scariest image that comes to mind is that of a powerful, otherwise normal looking man with his arms encircling a weaker person and who is saying that he loves that person, and that he's not going to hurt that person when his eyes and body are saying that he is about to crush the life out of that person.
Clowns are supposed to make children happy, which is best exposed in the idea of 'Clini Clowns'. These people are heroes who let sick little ones forget all their misery for a while.
I understand why these supposedly totally harmless people (clowns, in essence, are big, funny, naive chidren) become scary if they get evil. It's totally unsuspected.
Small children suddenly freaking out and laying their hands on a shotgun on sharp, is a picture you wouldn't want to imagine, too...
the colors , the everything about it!, you did an stunning job, and its just so mysterious i find to look at so misunderstood, but still its an amazing photo.
I thought that one of the scariest movie scenes was in poltergiest when that guy ripped his own face off. That still disturbs me when I think about it.
I think the unknown is the scariest kind of monster, when you don't know what it is you just hear noises and catch movements out of the corner of your eye that make you feel paranoid
that reminds me of a cold winter night when its thundering but no lighting and no rain. And i think the true reason that you you made it just a mask is cause behind every mask a true beautiy comes out,
you definately have an amazing imagination. its good that you decided to just draw whatever came up,other than drawing a clown that was drawnd already.
this drawing brings fear and terror in my mind. AMAZING WORK. it expresses everything a scary clown should!!!
That clown looks just like I feel inside,. But honestly, I like the living dead movies,. no particular charactar,. just dead people that are still walking around, eating living flesh.
PS,. Have you heard before you look just like JLo?
You're so right about the monsters... People can do things no monster in any horror movie could... Maybe that's why I don't find monsters scary. Some spanish horrors are scary, they don't show monsters, they show madness, they show what pain people recieve from the world around them can create in their minds.
And about this painting... It's very good, but I wouldn't know what to do with it. For me it's too creepy to just hang it on a wall. :)
Fav' kind of moster woah that's a tough one! Well I'm usually drawn to ghosts/ spirits/ that sorta thing. I love the classic good vs. evil battles ya know? :)
amazing painting. It makes me feel uneasy. :3 in a good way
Scary clowns confuse happiness and fear. A confused conflation of good and evil which makes me want to scream.
They can't hurt me, they are not real. But what if they were? Are they like witches? Can they do magic? Crap, magic scary clowns! That would suck! They could make it so you couldn't even scream if you wanted to.
I see your painting Val and i want to scream, but it must be a magic scary clown because I can't now!
I think this is the cooliest painting ever last week i had to write 3 paragraphs so i choose my goals i wrote a paragraph about your paintings and how i wish i could draw like that. the teachers proofreading it so i havent gotten it back...
but anyways i was watching your old videos and all your paintings are beautiful and amazing... :)
They are a wonderful combination of deadly and sexy.
Clowns are really just creepy. Even before the movie "It". No real person could be that upbeat and happy all the time with out having some sinister motive behind it. Mimes are better. At least they don't talk.
im afraid of clowns too! i saw 'It' and seriously, the only thing i remember is the sewer part too, and every day I walk home, i try to avoid all sewers. -shivers-
Agree with the clown thing, I saw the movie when I was 5 and was never a fan was not fond of clowns. But good job on the painting, inspiring. Keep up the great work! :]
Like I told you on facebook, I think Jason is the "coolest" horror character since he just keeps getting up no matter how many times you "kill" him. It was a pretty weird movie but I have never been scared of any horror movie characters... But wow when I saw the eyes before seeing the painting I really expected to see a sad, depressed looking clown, but with the addition of the mouth it totally changes the clown's persona! It is creepy and sad, I love it! :D
i love i can just remember that seen and just love how ur art just works out with what every you do . i Know a lot of people are scared of clowns because i am one in the haunted house i work at but still love all ur art keep on making more
I really like this painting. I love when people combine any of the arts with fear or horror because it's a very simple primitive emotion, and yet sometimes the strangest things scare us! haha I too agree that monsters arent as scary as real ppl :P
great painting !! you seem very confident with this "grotesque" part of yours, I like that very much :)
my fav horror character is the witch in blairwitch project, I would never imagine to be scared at this extent in a movie anymore... the fact we never see her... omg nasty !!!
Loved it, especially the contrast between the smoothness, and sort-of softness, on the clown face next to the black background sort of slathered on.... :)
i really did like your painting i think you are very talented painter.... i would love to have one of your paintings.. just for an idea someday you should paint a sad lonely tree just by itself maybe just an idea.. love your videos i watch them all the time ... keep up your good work.. it inspires me to paint but im not very good but it gives me kinda insparation.... buh bye
...nice clown, nice painting...creepy feeling the painting gives me...and with that I would have to say...I love it...I can go into detail on the how and why but don't really wanna sound like a snobby art prick right now...love ya ;-)
i really like the actual shape of the canvas its on, you know? its not just square and flat edges, but it has slanted edges, even that makes this painting more creepy :D yet awesome!
Oh, gosh i hate clowns, they are soo scary! i don't even know why im afraid of them...i would have to agree with val, i saw 'It' when i was a little kid....
but there is one thing i am much more afraid of.........i am absolutly terified of catterpillers (?spelling?)
OMG..I am scared of clowns like nothing else..and yep the movie It (and the clown hiding in the sewer scene was the most terrifying thing in the whole movie) had lots to do with this. ;_;
I don't know what to be more afraid of; the clown or you Val, the one who created that horror.
I wouldn't be surprised if that painting gave you, or will give the new owner, a scare in the middle of the night when going for a midnight snack, or coming home from a late night.
I dont know why this scares me but, The Grudge and The Ring terrify me,and other characters like that. Those things and ghost stories of little children creep me out!! Hearing chainsaws and seeing them really scare me too. What if the grudge comes at me with a chainsaw :,( !!!!!!!!
love this painting the most of all of them! why? because it speaks to me...it expresses everything I am afraid of and everything I should be afraid of...but I am not
I just love the all horror films, they are always so creative and different for the sake of creating shock or an atmosphere preparing for you for that scare ; )
I like you am very scared by clowns, strangely enough my husband is not at all. He and his family used to all dress as clowns for fun. So now we are sitting here watching your video togather arguing about your clown.lol I say your clown is amazing and very very scary, he says it's not scary at all and just looks happy. I guess that's what ya get when your husband is a clown. ugh. Great work Val.
I have loved halloween my entire life, and it's actually one of my passions. My house stays decorated with horror movie characters & halloween decorations all year long. I have huge collection of evil clowns & pictures, this would be amazing for my collection. This is, in my opinion the best painting I've seen you do. :) Love it Val! If only I had the money to buy the real copy of it. The music made the video tie into Halloween as well, that was a great effect! Another great video & painting!
Michael Meyers. I love the way how he is such a creeoer. and he doesn't like run and pant, and get tired! he's so cool, and he can survive like, anything!!
i also like leatherface, although he is quite the opposite of M.M. :)
I was very surprised to see this video! As a child I watched the movie the IT and was terrified of clowns ever since!! I remember one part of the movie when the clown was in the sewer and he was taking to the child looking into the sewer, and the clown said "Do you want a balloon they all float down here"! OMG I hated it! I still have nightmares about it! Seeing your painting will give me nightmares tonight, but I was glad I'm not the only one that movie had an effect on! Thanks & keep painting!
Ok, so... There are lots of horror characters I am scared of... for one, Freddy Krueger.. that is a childhood fear though.. but the thing that scares me the most is not a character, but an actor.. i am Petrified of Christopher Walken.. I know that is LAME but that is what scares me... Oh btw, your painting is AMAZING.. I like to dabble, but if i could do to canvas what you do.. I would call it more than dabbling.. thanks..
My favorite Horror monster? ... The Headless Horseman from "Sleepy Hollow", called forth by the dark powers of a witch, riding that heavy-footed black horse out of the fog in the dim moonlight, bearing down on his next victim, a flash of cold steel, and... Kind of give you chills thinking about it, doesn't it??? ;-) Anyway, that's my favorite.
I was 5 and my brother was scream for halloween and i was a little flapper girl and he had this bloody knife and all night he would pretend to kill me and from that day on he would run in my room randomly with the scream mask on and the knife and i would yell at the top of my lungs and now 11 years later, i am scared out of my mind when i see screams face on halloween or on tv or anywhere.
Ughhh i Hated that movie so much when i was little. One day i didnt want to be the only one in the family freaked out by the IT movie. So me and a close friend of mine took my brother over her house to watch it with him and every time IT came out we would sneak up on him and scare the Pants out of him. But he wasn't the only one getting scared my friends dog would hide under the bed when my brother would sream. It was sooo cute but in the end i was still the only one that hated that movie...
As much as I love you art, I don't think I should have watched this. Clowns freak me out as is, and this one.. *shudder* you did a fantastic job on it though. If it didn't have that creepy factor or being a clown I really would love it ^^
The art derived from creating an effective contrast to the traditional clown archetype that gives this work such an effective and illuminating presence.
Maybe that is also what makes Val's "scary face" so effective? ;)
That painting is amazing. I would post something to try and win it but I hate clowns. A lot. They are one of about 3 things I am absolutely terrified of.
I also share this fear of clowns that you speak of, but the most scary thing for me (even scarier then clowns!) is normal people doing horrible things.
You captured my fear so perfectly in that painting that I'm afraid to go to sleep now! XD
However I know that you are just a pretty painter and not an oracle of death, so I think I'll be ok. :)
my girlfriend knows it creeps me out, so she always says "beep beep" and "they all float down here".......that's what Pennywise the clown says to the kids in "IT"
but Michael Myers is still the best horror movie guy ever!
I love the colors you used to make this painting :)

umm scariest movie? probably when i was six, and we were going to watch a movie at school, on halloween.
ther were a bunch of big kids, and when we voted on what movie to watch, and all the big kids picked slappy.
i had nightmares for weeks.
then, when my cousin came back from mexico, she brought me this doll that looked EXACTLY LIKE SLAPPY!
it was so creepy i swear it blinked at me once, so my mom finally gave it to good will.

this drawing brings fear and terror in my mind. AMAZING WORK. it expresses everything a scary clown should!!!

That clown looks just like I feel inside,. But honestly, I like the living dead movies,. no particular charactar,. just dead people that are still walking around, eating living flesh.
PS,. Have you heard before you look just like JLo?

Your videos are just too short lately Val... :(
You're so right about the monsters... People can do things no monster in any horror movie could... Maybe that's why I don't find monsters scary. Some spanish horrors are scary, they don't show monsters, they show madness, they show what pain people recieve from the world around them can create in their minds.
And about this painting... It's very good, but I wouldn't know what to do with it. For me it's too creepy to just hang it on a wall. :)

This scary clown painting is so awful looking that
it makes me want to throw up. I sure couldn't have it
or a poster in my room, I'd be hiding my eyes from
it all the time. lol.
Your hair sure looks pretty though. I'm just a sucker
for pretty things, ugly, scary, not

Scary clowns confuse happiness and fear. A confused conflation of good and evil which makes me want to scream.
They can't hurt me, they are not real. But what if they were? Are they like witches? Can they do magic? Crap, magic scary clowns! That would suck! They could make it so you couldn't even scream if you wanted to.
I see your painting Val and i want to scream, but it must be a magic scary clown because I can't now!
Great work of art!
I want to be happy and safe again!

Vampires are my favorite.
They are a wonderful combination of deadly and sexy.
Clowns are really just creepy. Even before the movie "It". No real person could be that upbeat and happy all the time with out having some sinister motive behind it. Mimes are better. At least they don't talk.

Like I told you on facebook, I think Jason is the "coolest" horror character since he just keeps getting up no matter how many times you "kill" him. It was a pretty weird movie but I have never been scared of any horror movie characters... But wow when I saw the eyes before seeing the painting I really expected to see a sad, depressed looking clown, but with the addition of the mouth it totally changes the clown's persona! It is creepy and sad, I love it! :D

I don't know what to be more afraid of; the clown or you Val, the one who created that horror.
I wouldn't be surprised if that painting gave you, or will give the new owner, a scare in the middle of the night when going for a midnight snack, or coming home from a late night.

I like you am very scared by clowns, strangely enough my husband is not at all. He and his family used to all dress as clowns for fun. So now we are sitting here watching your video togather arguing about your clown.lol I say your clown is amazing and very very scary, he says it's not scary at all and just looks happy. I guess that's what ya get when your husband is a clown. ugh. Great work Val.

I have loved halloween my entire life, and it's actually one of my passions. My house stays decorated with horror movie characters & halloween decorations all year long. I have huge collection of evil clowns & pictures, this would be amazing for my collection. This is, in my opinion the best painting I've seen you do. :) Love it Val! If only I had the money to buy the real copy of it. The music made the video tie into Halloween as well, that was a great effect! Another great video & painting!

I was very surprised to see this video! As a child I watched the movie the IT and was terrified of clowns ever since!! I remember one part of the movie when the clown was in the sewer and he was taking to the child looking into the sewer, and the clown said "Do you want a balloon they all float down here"! OMG I hated it! I still have nightmares about it! Seeing your painting will give me nightmares tonight, but I was glad I'm not the only one that movie had an effect on! Thanks & keep painting!

Ok, so... There are lots of horror characters I am scared of... for one, Freddy Krueger.. that is a childhood fear though.. but the thing that scares me the most is not a character, but an actor.. i am Petrified of Christopher Walken.. I know that is LAME but that is what scares me... Oh btw, your painting is AMAZING.. I like to dabble, but if i could do to canvas what you do.. I would call it more than dabbling.. thanks..

My favorite Horror monster? ... The Headless Horseman from "Sleepy Hollow", called forth by the dark powers of a witch, riding that heavy-footed black horse out of the fog in the dim moonlight, bearing down on his next victim, a flash of cold steel, and... Kind of give you chills thinking about it, doesn't it??? ;-) Anyway, that's my favorite.

I was 5 and my brother was scream for halloween and i was a little flapper girl and he had this bloody knife and all night he would pretend to kill me and from that day on he would run in my room randomly with the scream mask on and the knife and i would yell at the top of my lungs and now 11 years later, i am scared out of my mind when i see screams face on halloween or on tv or anywhere.

Ughhh i Hated that movie so much when i was little. One day i didnt want to be the only one in the family freaked out by the IT movie. So me and a close friend of mine took my brother over her house to watch it with him and every time IT came out we would sneak up on him and scare the Pants out of him. But he wasn't the only one getting scared my friends dog would hide under the bed when my brother would sream. It was sooo cute but in the end i was still the only one that hated that movie...

As much as I love you art, I don't think I should have watched this. Clowns freak me out as is, and this one.. *shudder* you did a fantastic job on it though. If it didn't have that creepy factor or being a clown I really would love it ^^

The art derived from creating an effective contrast to the traditional clown archetype that gives this work such an effective and illuminating presence.
Maybe that is also what makes Val's "scary face" so effective? ;)
