Hey everyone. Been away for a little while, and I know I didn't deliver on my promise for new arts, so you can feel free to slap me. I'm currently facing a dilemma. I have both a DevART and FA account, and I don't know what I should do for sorting. I've been trying to keep them both up to date, but that's not really working, as I do a lot of photography. So my new plan, or idea anyways, is to be posting my artwork on here, and my photography on DA. I would move everything over here, except that 1) I have a lot of friends who like to watch my photography, but aren't necessarily very fur oriented themselves, so inviting them to FA doesn't seem like a great idea. The other thing is FA is a community of artists, and while photography is an art, it rarely has anything even loosely anthro-based in it's content, so I don't know if it's entirely the right place to be posting all my photography. Also, by not cross-posting, it helps push me to do more with my pencil and paper. Thoughts on this are appreciated of course.

In other related news, I found an old pencilcase from high school with, oh, a whole 60 pencil set of Laurentians in it, barely used. :) Score one for me. Add that to the graphic pencils I recently bought, and I'm pretty good for sketching in analog, which was the idea. :) I'm not a huge fan of Photoshop coloring, not in other people's art you understand, but just in how one goes about it. It seems much easier to just break out the color pencils. It's not as shiny, but it doesn't need to be either. So now I have no excuse.

In other unrelated news, we almost all got arrested at the VI Fur Meet! :D J/K about the happiness, but seriously, could've happened. Here's the skinny: <a href="http://www.furry.ca/forum/index.php.....t;>Furry.ca Forums - VI Furs April Meet thread</a>.

Lastly, there are some absolutely FANTASTIC artists in this community, and to my surprise, a lot of "fat fur" artists, despite the bashing that they tend to get at the hands of those who don't understand fat fetishism. I feel like this is one of few places I can openly show my appreciation for said art. I have a general "fat fetish problem", as it were. Planet sized furs don't really work for me, but the plump or chubby artwork is just... well, yeah. (This interest manifests itself in real life too, again, chubby = love). It's comforting to see I'm not the only weirdo. :) I'm going to try and incorporate this interest into some of my artwork, not all of it mind you, and would appreciate any input experienced fat furs can give me. :)

Think that's all for now. Gonna go try and draw SOMETHING. Argh. I can do this. I'm just rusty, right?
