Overdue Update - Personal
2 years ago
Five years sounds about right for a hiatus.
I'm working on a backlog of scanned sketches and saved images from the many years between my last upload and now; there's not really a lot to share that would be on-brand for FA so to speak, and I've been quite busy with work eating a lot of my time and energies. Thanks to advances in technology, however, I think I can ease back into making and posting art regularly enough. I am an artist, and art is what I do. No matter what I do that takes me away from it, I will never lose my relationship with my creations. I'm scheduling to post a smattering of drawings and illustrations that I've not posted here for one reason or another, some of it very old, some of it more recent, all of it I think appropriate for this space.
However, I am also going to be sharing the absolutely tiny amount of personal, nsfw art I've done - with the intention to do more. This is FurAffinity, and furries are wild and sexual as they want to be, after all.
This is uncharted territory for me, and due to a bad experience I had when I was first starting to explore these feelings (at the tender age of 25), I never felt I had an outlet to explore or give this material the energy it deserved. I've engaged and enjoyed the many erotic and kinky ways furries depict sexuality for many years - in recent years, a number of asexual people within fetish and kink circles have passed my notice, and it has helped me feel less like a freak.
I want to engage with this facet of myself in a way that helps scrape away the shame I've felt for so long. With Twitter's own drop in appeal for me, I felt like in the midst of reevaluating the social media presences I have and what exactly I want out of the internet in general, this is as good of a time to explore this part of me as well. I have an idea I want to work on, and it's going to involve some personal art being posted when I make it. It's not normal, certainly not vanilla, but it wasn't made for anyone else by myself. The way I see it, if you're on FurAffinity anyways with the mature blocker turned off, then you know what you signed up for. And I do know what I'm risking doing this - but at this point, why should I care?
I'm the master of myself, and I should have pride in all aspects of who I am, even if I'm still taking small steps to get there.
One of those steps has been to watch, fav, and comment on the art of these erotic artists that I've enjoyed for years and discovered recently. I still love a lot of SFW artwork, I still like making it. But this is a part of me, too.
Take care of yourselves, y'all.
