Just a little backstory:
The following drawings were made by the artist Louis Wain, who was famed for his sketches of cats. Following the death of his mother, Wain started developing increasingly severe symptoms of schizophrenia.
This collection of drawings are believed to be a reflection of Wain's degrading condition. That said.....

This is "Black Metal", the opening track of the same named album by Venom. The strange sound in the beginning is the sound of a chainsaw. If I remember correctly, members of Venom went to the studio for recording, but found it locked. So, Conrad Land, frontman of the band, took a chansaw and cut the door open. Then, the idea of having chainsaw sounds in the album hit him.

Here's another one: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7-iRf9AWoyE
This is "The Number of the Beast", title track of the hit album by Iron Maiden. Apparently, Steve Harris, bassist and main composer of the band, had a nightmare where he was sacrificed in a satanic ritual. When he woke up, he remembered the nightmare and decided to compose a song about it. Little did he know that, alongside "Powerslave", it would be the most successful album the band ever recorded.

One of my old online friends started carving skulls to keep him from drinking and worse. He was facing possible jail time in Romania if he didn't clean up. He has become an amazing artist.

I am American and no Boma is a joke name. Stands for Boney Old Man’s Ass.

I met Victor online in the off-topic forum of Path of Exile if you were wondering how I knew him.

Oh yeah.... Im studying psychology stuff right now, and the art further down looks like some really solid textbook examples of things someone would schizophrenia would draw (I think one of those pieces IS in a textbook) ... but, to answer you question:

I mean, I guess some stuff I draw have stories in itself, as I get obscure weight the art because I dont want someone to see it, then get immedelty scared off/worried for me, since I do draw based on what im feeling. I use lots of symbolysims ((Sorry I cant spell good)) and stuff, and to be honest, I try to tell storyies, and when I have lots of free time, I draw pages of the same person, but doing different things. So yeah, I think that some of my more obscure drawings and art can tell a story of its own.

((Sorry if this isn't what you want))
