did i hear you say TRADE? gosh i love your art and i would be honored to do a trade with you x.x it's up to you though

Sorry -- the trades were done in the past. Current situations require I spend my time earning more income.

Believe me, I wish it were different.

that's perfectly understandable! i hope a time arises when i get to trade with you :D i still love your art! such clean, smooth, and flowing lines. and i love your coloring. UHG so inspiring!

You are a really interesting individual. From all the comments you've been getting it sounds like you've had an extensive and prolific history of art/commerce, and in a good way.

I hope I'll get to learn more of it with subsequent journals.

I've been with the furry community for quite a while now... since 2001 I believe? Not certain.

I've kept my distance from FA due to personal beliefs that I can now safely say are no longer conflicting with FA.

But I must be clear -- furry is my hobby, not my lifestyle.

Personal beliefs… I didn't expect to hear that. Especially considering VCL has damn near everything on it. Wouldn't mind hearing you unpack that idea, if it's not getting too personal.

I never gave the definition of "furry" too much thought, but I do know our subject matters seem to fit on FA. It's a site with some amazing (and exclusive) artists, and a demographic that can use our experiences.

I don't know how furry you are (*cringe*), and I don't really care, so long as you're being authentic—While I consider the life of an artist to be a lifestyle, I don't think we have anything to prove. :)

You are, of course, welcome to upload my piece if you'd like.

It's in line to be posted soon :)

There is a method to the order I'm posting artwork. Expect your commission to be last in the line so it is one of the first to appear in the gallery.

I've improved a LOT since when we traded. If you don't mind, I'd like to re-do my half. What you came up with for me was so gorgeous that I really do think you deserve more than what I created at the time.

That is both very welcomed, but totally not necessary. I was quite happy with what I got in return :)

...and you may remember I warned you about how the desire to 're-do' trades complicates things...

If you're sure! Admittedly I don't have the best memory, but I'm sure I could find it in my e-mail. ;P

Very impressive, sir. You made a hit on my journal.

Really looking forward to commissioning you in the future!
