    Have you ever wanted to draw something, or convey a certain message in a piece of art, but decided against it for reasons beyond yourself? Were you worried someone might be offended, or think it looked weird or disgusting? Was there a drawing you really liked but had to change or crop because of others' comments? Have you decided against drawing for these same reasons even when you know other people won't see it?
    You don't have to go into detail with examples, but if there're any ideas you've had for drawings or themes you've wanted to work with but feel nervous tackling, share them!

    Personally i think that no art should be censored. Art is supposed to awake feelings. Cause an experience. Its only normal, that some forms of art effects someone negatively and some positively.

    Critique is also only a good thing. Someone praises your work and someone stops it to the ground. Either way you did what art is supposed to do. Make people feel. Dropping something just because someone says that your art is wrong or sick or something else is limiting the artist. And on the topic of the viewer, they dont need to look at your work. If you dont like something, just watch something else. Artists have the right to make what ever they want.

    You could say, that your art reflects your soul. your personality. Does someone have the right to deny that? No.

    Publish what you like. Viewer decides what they watch. You just provide content.
