You may have noticed that I haven't posted too much art here recently. There are a number of reasons for that. One, a friend of mine had his artwork/photographs blatently stolen and re-posted. Yes, he ended up removing them, but it still made me feel incredibly bad. Two, there are way too many people here. I feel lost in the crowd and it's difficult to meet other artists who are similar to myself in such a diverse place. Three, I never really felt at home here. I am a cartoonist, and worse yet, a furry artist. That's something I feel a lot of folk look down on, I've always felt that way. Not that I am ashamed of what I do in the slightest, I have never been happier then at a Fur Con or drawing animals doing human-like things.
When I first came online, I was accepted and posted art at Yerf.com. I had no idea what "Furry" was, I just knew that I liked drawing cartoon animals and I was happy to find a place where I could belong. Well, Yerf became just... not fun anymore. So I came here... and I never felt the same belonging as I did while on Yerf.
Well, my art has changed since then. I have learned much, and have changed as a person. I have been through some hard times, and the one thing that has NOT changed about me is the fact that I love cartoon animals.
So, I have changed my home archive to Furaffinity.com
Finally, I feel at home again and like I belong to a community. A very *strange* community, but that's neither here nor there, I love it just the same.
I am a funny animal comic artist. I am a furry artist. Yes, I draw commissions for people, and may never excel past that point. I am not a professional artist. But I am happy. My art makes others happy... and that is where I have finally found my feeling of self-worth. Life sucks, but in a world of fantasy we can make friends and escape from the things in life that we can't change.
I will still pop in to check my watch list now and then, and perhaps I will post here once in a while, but it won't be too often.
Thanks to everyone who has watched/supported me in the past. I am thankful, and I hope that my art has helped YOU forget about your problems for only a moment while you glanced upon it.

Squeek!
FurAffinity may not be perfect, but I agree that it is friendlier and no one has to make apologies for what they draw. Beatrix Potter didn't, why should we? The genre of talking animals is wonderful in and of itself, as any child knows.
See you at Mephit!

Just take a fifteen minute intermission, boys.

I'm an expert on very few things. The above is probably not one of them.
