Talking with a lot of folks about the topic of this fandom and the subject matter, especially pertaining to art pieces in particular I pose these questions:
Do you feel that an artist, if he's unknown, has to "pay his dues" by drawing male oriented or homosexual themed pieces to gain recognition due to recent trends in taste in the fandom? -OR- Can same artist get away with drawing whatever the hell he wants as long as his technique is solid?
talk amongst yourselves.

Really depends on what the artist wants I think. Do they want to pander, do they crave recognition or do they just want to do their own thing because well, they want to. Male oriented I wouldn't say is needed for recognition though, there are some well known furry porn hawkers who don't go there.

Doing art for the sake of fitting in or to be trendy? No way! Art for art's sake... that's what it's about.

OP
well, this was less about me and more about artists in general. I'm kinda happy where I'm at but this point came up over the course of a conversation I was having with a friend at the time :)
