General
I have a super-secret, super-cool thing I'm working on and I need some help from all my lovely watchers:

How long have you been doing the arts?
I've been doing art for roughly 22 years now! However! I only started taking it seriously back in Junior year of High school ('07-'08) and haven't stopped since!
Who inspires you most?
Picking a single person or entity to “inspire” me is very difficult, but I'd have to say people like my friends Shariea and Savikins do a lot of things that inspire me. Motivating me, however? That's all of my friends and fans, though the biggest cheerleader I have is my father! (Love you, Dad!)
You started out drawing humans, what led you to drawing anthro characters?
My ex-fiance, actually. The year I picked up drawing and taking it seriously, he had this crazy wild idea of making a Sonic the Hedgehog OC comic, but more humanly styled. I had never heard the terms “furry” or “anthropomorphic” before this time, but one look at the community, I kind of knew where I wanted to be.
What is something in your art that you wish you could do better at?
Backgrounds. Most definitely backgrounds. Following closely behind, the patience and dedication to giving every bit of detail that a piece deserves. I've found myself shying away from background work because it's daunting, and generally, requires a lot of detail. That's not really all I have problems with and want to improve upon, of course, but rather than make an itemized list, I'll leave you with one more thing I want to improve: the shading in regards to the light source.
What would you say in your art makes it your signature piece? For example, people seem to say the way you draw eyes but what do you say?
That's a tough one. Eyes, those are definitely something that people pinpoint as intrinsically “me” in my work, but since that answer is already the common one, I think I'd have to say the way I draw faces, be they human or anthropomorphic. Another answer would be the amount of personality I put into each piece, but that's not necessarily a tangible thing and is something many artists can pull off.
If you could bone anyone any the fandom and outside it, who would these two lucky f*cks be?
Well, I think it's kind of an obligatory thing to name a celebrity crush, but for inside the fandom? There are quite a few people. I think I'd bone fa20xx if I could, and Misha Collins. Yeah. That's my answer. There are some people who'd look at this and go, “But what about me? Aren't I a good answer?” yeah, you probably are. Especially if you're one of my friends!
Artist you look up to, outside the fandom?
What are some things that you have a hard time with art wise?
Who/what is your biggest inspiration?
Since I technically already answered this above, I'm going to go with a “what” answer, this time. The biggest thing I draw inspiration from is music! A good tune can put a dozen different ideas in my head, and sometimes it's hard to keep up!
Who is an artist you look up to outside of the fandom?
Outside of the fandom, I look up to artists like Sakimichan, or for loft as all heck goals, Boris Vallejo.
What are some things that you have a hard time with art wise?
Motivation, sometimes anatomy is a very tricky thing that makes me struggle, and definitely human feet. A lot of the times, I struggle with ideas and the issue of “I see what I want to draw in my head, but I don't quite have the talent yet to make it look just. Like. That.”.
Well, there's a few ways this can happen. Mostly, it's people who are willing to 'take orders' but don't quite want to be in a pet/master relationship. Another way is just being super supportive and protective of me (that sort of sounds conceited...). For me, my harem is a collection of my closest friends who'd do just about anything to see me happy, in the same way I'd do for them.
