THE INFO ZONE
as an artist,
i mostly draw digital illustrations and stuff! my subjects usually include gay furry stuff or animals, with occasional appearances of humans and fan art :) im not one to purposefully limit myself tho so if u take a look at my gallery theres a lot of random stuff in there..!

my art journey
i started drawing and participating in the online art community (read: deviantart) around january 2011, and not long after i started experimenting with digital art. like. 2 months after. in GIMP with a mouse. in july i was gifted a tablet! and then ive just kinda gone crazy on drawing since :)
i started considering art as a career and applying to [art school] around 2017, which i would keep doing until sending my last portfolio in 2019. during the years i spent applying i could feel that it was heavily diminishing the enjoyment i got from drawing, and, combined with the career outlook for artists, it simply wasnt worth the struggle for me! in lieu of being accepted into [art school], i did take a semester course on classical drawing there in 2018, which was actually rly awsome and educational and my first time living alone :D
ever since then ive been trying to get my vibe back and have more fun with art as a hobby again. it took a while but id say around 2022/2023 is when id consider myself Recovered from The Great Vibe Kill of 2017-2019!
now its 2024 and ive just opened for commissions for the first time! im really feeling art this year so far and ive even been getting back into using traditional mediums and playing around again :D we are literally So back ✌
