There is no furry artist P1
17 years ago
Alright, this is alot to try and explain in a few lines especially since its the morning but i will have a part 2 later tonight about this "theory".
--There is no Furry Artist-- Part 1: Goals higher than the sky.
This attempts to point one's mind into thinking about his artwork OVERALL. I mean, think about it dudes, we learn anatomy, we learn facial expressions, we even try to add perspective, light and shading to make our characters, overall, with extra efforts added into it, we can round off the art fundamentals attempting to do what we like to do. Yet to fully do so, we need to break off from our "lust/likes" and search further to gain further knowledge and skills. In the end there really isn't such a thing as a furry artist, just the artist who's went on and studied to gain more to do the do that they do-do.
In doing so, its no longer about style, characters or whatever, just how far you can push your knowledge of the fundamentals to get what you want, how you want it. The same could be said for certain anime artist.
Its rare, barely seen online but some do think outside the animebox and study to achieve greater levels.
But, liking something too much may sting back
Part 2, tonight.

not good enough to show anyone
As Furry artists are concerned you are right, they don't exist. The artists that do present work in the fandom fall into the more basic elements of art categories. These are more often than not, either a realistic representation of an animal or anthro, and that of the illustrative or suggestive if you will. Sadly, the best part of the work being created is simple convention, as you mentioned with life studies. For this very reason, because it falls into a category already created, then Furry artists don't exist independently, but that of the rationalist and convention based artists.
