Sorry about the silence, guys. With all the work I've been having to do in order to finish my faculty well, there hasn't been much time left for any other activities.

With the last bits of work being concluded this week and my final presentation and grading happening on the next, my life will finally level up from part-time student into full time freelancer and I'll be free to dive head first into what really matters: CHASING AFTER MY EVER SO ELUSIVE DREAMS!

One of those dreams is growing my macrofurry webcomic into epic proportions, so that's the first thing I'm going to do to celebrate my new life! So keep your eyes open for my stream link, as I'll be streaming the making of the next SHIBI page starting Monday! If you don't know it yet, go check it out on the icon below!

And now for the second topic...

Another one of my dreams is to become skilled enough in order to work in the entertainment industry as a concept artist. For that I will have to take a few art courses and those are expensive. So I'll be opening for commissions sometime soon to help pay for them. Details to come on another journal dedicated to that, as I still have to sort a few things first...

I hope you guys have a great week and we'll see each other on Monday. Take care!

So I've decided to livestream my work in order to motivate myself to produce more art and stay focused on it for longer periods of time. And it would be a great pleasure if you could all join me on my artistic quest to improve my skills and make awesome art!

Come watch me and lets have fun together! There will be music and I'll be commenting on my process as well as answering your questions and chatting with you guys in general. Maybe you will learn something new, maybe I'll learn something new or maybe we'll all just goof off together and have a party! WOOO!

Today's livestream will be about finishing page 01 of my new webcomic SHIBI. If you don't know about it yet, come check it out here:  shibi-comic

HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE!!!! I'll be posting a notice here when streaming begins so you all don't miss it.

Hi everyone!

First of all, I would like to give a big and warm welcome to my new watchers! And as for my old watchers, I want to apologise for disappearing so suddenly for a while. Some of you got worried about me and I didn’t want that. At the same time, it felt good to know I was missed. Thank you so much for the love!

I want to use this journal to talk about what has been going on in my life lately and what I have been up to these past few months. Well, a lot has been going on, actually. Especially on my mind. For a while now, I’ve been doubting myself a lot. This has nothing to do with self-esteem though, that part of me is doing great, this is about deciding what I want to do with my life right now.

Ever since I was a child, I’ve always displayed great interest for multiple areas of life and have always done my best to know a bit of everything. Technology, politics, history, science, you name it. For a good part of my life I’ve pursued a career in computer engineering, but about four years ago I realised that this wouldn’t truly make me happy. My true calling was in the arts. Nothing gives me more pleasure than producing content to entertain others, giving people something that they can care about and relate to, forget about their daily problems and immerse themselves into another world where they don’t have to worry about anything else for a while. For the past 3 years I’ve been attempting to work towards building something meaningful to accomplish just that.

During this time, I've had many ideas for different projects. Right now I've got plans for 4 webcomics, 2 music albums, 1 YouTube channel and a media production company. Before you say anything, I am well aware that I cannot do all that at the same time. If I want any of that to succeed, I need to choose one and stick to it, then slowly take steps towards doing the others as time allows or as previous projects get done. Here's the catch: I find myself unable to pick one. If I choose any of those projects, that means I need to let go of the others until their time come. I am also 90% confident I can accomplish all of those projects with my current skills and knowledge.

During this time, being around any kind of social media or online communities was only serving as a reminder to me that I still haven't decided on what to focus on. So I recently decided to stay away from the internet until I got my life sorted out. It was only this past weekend that I was taken by a liberating feeling of not caring about it all anymore. Just go on doing whatever felt most natural to me and go along with that. And so I decided to pick up drawing again.

Everything I will be doing for a while will be for my own self improvement and amusement (and hopefully yours too). Because nothing is worth doing if the stress outweighs the benefits of doing it. Does this mean I will come back to stay? We'll see. Things aren't completely stable yet in my life for me to be sure, but I sure as hell would love to! For now, all I can say is that it's nice to see the face of my online communities again.

And by the way… I’m going for the YouTube channel! ; )

Thanks for reading!

I am ready to leave Fur Affinity for good, but I will remain on FA for as long as I still have a significant audience here.

I want to make Furry Network and deviantART my two main homes in the internet and those are the places where you will see my stuff pop up first. Especially Furry Network. In fact, I highly recommend any furry to go check out Furry Network. That place is the FUTURE of our fandom! It has everything we love in one place, is very easy to use, has some really neat features and it actually looks like a website from 2016.

For those of you who are curious to know where else you can find me, here's the full list of links:

Furry Network
deviantART
YouTube
Tumblr
Twitter
Telegram

And don't forget my anthro art blog, where you can find the best in anthro art from all over the internet!
Anthro Heaven

See ya around, everyone! At any one of those places.

Hey guys!

I just heard that my link wasn't working. I had misspelled, terribly sorry about it. It will work 100% now!
Hope to talk to you all soon!

Sup!

Sorry for the complete lack of updates in the past few months. I am having to devote all my time to studying, work and college projects. I've also been thinking a lot about where my life is going and I think I now have a clearer vision of who I want to be and which direction I want to take. I am an artist and dreamer, I want to create content that is worth something to others. I want to be better, I want to connect with other people, I want to share experiences and do my part to help making the world a better place for everyone! Ultimately, I want to enjoy life and everything it has to offer. And I want to do it together with family and friends!

To that end, I'm going to be putting a lot of effort into remaking my schedule. I'm going to carve out time for the people and things that I care about, because I can't go on with the way things are now. I am 26 years old and, in essence, my life hasn't really progressed much since I was 18. I seriously believe it is time to move on. It is time to expand my horizons and start taking myself seriously, both professionally and artistically. That, and I really miss all of you guys a lot!

I also want to take this opportunity to apologise to the people I have been completely crappy to lately. I hope my new way of doing things will bring us closer again and that we can experience this great adventure that is life, together. Of course, I will still be very busy, it's not like my problems will magically disappear with the new schedule. But by increasing my focus and acting responsibly, I hope to be able to reduce the time I take to complete my usual activities and be able to make way for other, more interesting adventures!

Thank you, to all who have taken the time to read this. May awesome things come your way!

See y'all around!

First of all, I would like to give a big warm welcome to all my new watchers! As for the old ones, I love you all! You guys are the best!

Secondly, I would very much like to apologise for the lack of any updates lately. With College and work constantly looming over my head and filling up all my schedule, it has been really hard to find time to sit down and work on my personal projects. Whatever bit of free time I have left is spent on relaxation and leisure, otherwise I can't cope.

Coming December, classes will be over and with it the possibility of having time and energy to get going again. There are so many ideas and pictures in my head that I want to share with all of you! My only fear is not having enough skill to pull them off, as what I want to try to pull with them is quite new for me. But I will be studying hard to get there, already bought a huge collection of books on digital art and mixed techniques. All that is left for me to do is get started!

So I hope you are all doing well and are eager for the holiday season that's coming up like I am! It holds many promises!

And if anyone among you have friends and/or family that were killed in the Paris attacks last Friday, know that my heart goes with you. And I hope our world leaders are mature enough not to go to war over this. Two wrongs don't make a right, and the last thing we need right now is more bloodshed from either side. All life is precious.

Peace everyone!

If anybody is wondering what's been going on with me, I am here to lay those questions to rest.

During the past few weeks (months? I really don't know anymore) my life has been kind of a giant roller coaster. Having to administer both university and work (yes, I am part of the working class now, Hooray!), I've been feeling too pressured and stressed to be able to think about my projects and produce art to post here. Some people who know me personally might think I'm overreacting with what I just said, but I'm not. I'm not used to this kind of routine and it is taxing me, but I am learning to adapt to it. So to sum it up, my life has been nothing but study and work lately.

Right now I am having a free week, it is giving me some time to breathe. And best of all, it is giving me time to resume work on my personal art. I have been making some sketches for ideas I'm having, but nothing really presentable enough to publish (all this time without drawing has put my skills out of practice). But I don't think it is fair for you guys to stay in the dark about what is going on here until I feel confident enough to make something finished. So this is why I am going to make use of my Scraps folder in my gallery to post some of the stuff I've been working on.

That's it for now and if you do check out my sketches, please leave a comment. Your opinion is very important and valued! I LOVE YOU ALL!

I hope all is well with you guys! If any of you feel like chatting about anything, just leave a note, I always reply!

So here I was thinking to myself... I don't post new art here very often. That is mainly because there is a certain standard that I expect from myself when it comes to posting my art online. Most of the time, my stuff don't come out as good as you might think. Everything that I have painted and published so far is only the best of the best that I could produce during my practice sessions. But I also don't practice much either, probably why I am not getting good as fast as I hoped to be.

You see, when I try to draw something and it doesn't come out as good as I expected, I can get easily frustrated and lose motivation to work on the piece. The motivation will only come back after a long period of procrastination in which nothing gets done. To be quite honest, I am getting sick of this. I see most of the artists that I look up to producing wonderful stuff quite regularly, and I know how good it feels to me to see something new from them uploaded. I wish so hard to be like that, but that's just it, I keep wishing for it and take no action to convert the dream into reality. You're only as good as the effort you put in, right? So I want to break this bad habit and actually start putting more effort into my stuff.

I have decided to start opening my sketchbooks and scribbles for everyone on the net to see. Maybe the critique and comments will keep me motivated to keep doing more and more, until I get enough confidence to become the artist I am trying to be. Will you guys help me get there? There might be some freebies along the way if this goes really well.

I have chosen Twitter as my platform of choice, because its easy and dynamic to use, but if you guys prefer I do this somewhere else, let me know. SO CLICK THE LINK BELOW AND LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!

Well, I decided to give this whole thing another go. It was hard, but I might have finally gotten over my overly stupid fear of having my personal work exposed for everyone to see. Time will tell... All I can say for now is that I am feeling oddly comfortable with having my art out there.

Some folks here already know me from my previous attempt at building an online gallery, but for those of you who came later and those who missed my original introduction, here's a new one:

Call me Kryat. I am a graphic design student and artist. Although I don't consider myself a furry, I am a HUGE fan of anthropomorphic animals and that is what I like to draw! Seems contradictory, right? Well, I just don't dig all the porn. To me, anthropomorphic characters have way too much potential to be wasted in a orgy. I like to see and get to know characters in whatever could be considered their normal lives. I want to see them going out there and doing exciting stuff! I want to see the full spectrum of their emotional range and how that adds to their personalities being developed over time through conflict!

In short, I want the DRAMA!

It has always been my personal belief that anthro characters are capable of a much wider range of emotional expression than a human, and I intend to explore that. I want to make this little corner of the internet a place for awesomeness and the epic stuff of life! May no soul ever be bored while hanging around my page!

So here's the plan: I will try my best to post new stuff with some regularity, but can't promise anything. My life is a bit of a roller coaster when it comes to time management and available free time, but I guess this goes to most of us XD. At the very least, I hope you enjoy your stay and try to have as much fun as possible.

With that said...

WELCOME TO MY FREAK SHOW! LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!
