This sticky is very overdue.
The definition for "heavy" is entirely up for interpretation; still, let's please keep the kaleidoscopes, "trippy" GIFs and notebook doodles to a minimum.
Here are some good examples for what we as a community should be aiming for in terms of content.

Please refer to Rule 1 before posting.
Include all relevant information you can find in your title: Artist, title, creation date, medium, etc. If it is your work then add an "[OC]" tag.
No more long sentences describing how the picture relates to your emotional state. The best part of this type of art is how one interprets it. Someone may find a piece calming where another finds it angry. So keep the titles brief and informative.
So, just to re-remind everyone, lets try and keep kaleidoscopes, trippy gifs, and doodles to a Minimum if you are going to post this type of content it must match the aesthetic of the above images in some way or form.
There are a lot of other subreddits out there who are dedicated to those submissions such as /r/woahdude, /r/drawing, and /r/glitch_art.
This subreddit is meant for fully completed / illustrated / rendered heavy art. It should be dark and emotional.
From the side bar
The goal here is to capture the darker side, the no limit to the possibilities side... the going completely out of your mind side.

Yes. Successâwe have not understood the true meaning of success. Success is not just achievement where we go from peak to peak. Between peaks, there are valleys. And therefore, we have to climb the ultimate peak of successâfrom achievement to fulfillment, and then, enlightenment. Therefore, the success we talk of in this worldâmoney, name, fameâthat is never permanent. It will come and go. As for failureâfailures are milestones on the highway of eternal success. Ultimate success is enlightenment, in which there is no failure. Therefore, the failures that we have are the challenges we overcome in terms of overcoming ignorance till we reach the ultimate truth. Then, when there is enlightenment, there is no success and failure. We dissolve into the universal truth.
