Neglect
Posted 10 years agoGuuuuyyyyssss!! I have like 400+ submissions I haven't seen yet. I'm so sorry! I always end up neglecting FA. I have been super busy lately doing all the art for a board game so I just haven't really had time for internet in general. If there's any interest in seeing some of that stuff I can post some here, but it's really not furry related at all. You can see a lot of what I'm doing on my Facebook page though if you have one of those- https://www.facebook.com/pyrospaintings Basically I just wanted to let you all know that I am still alive and what I've been up to. I hope all of you are doing spectacular. I can't wait to see all the awesome art when I get some more free time, I know it's going to be amazing!

Quick Update regarding Inactivity
Posted 10 years agoSorry for my recent inactivity here lately. Thanks for all the recent (and not so recent) faves and stuff. I have been very busy recently and have fallen behind on messages and whatnot, but I will try to get caught up soon. I am currently working on an entry for DA's Outcast Odyssey Contest. You can see how it is coming along over on my Facebook page- www.facebook.com/pyrospaintings and after that I will be starting to work on this years calendar. I hope you are all doing well and that 2015 is going to be a good year for everyone. See you soon!
So I have finally caved and created a proper Facebook page for my art and jewelry. If you have a FB account I would love it if you would follow me there as I will be posting WIP shots, step by steps, sketches and other things you don't really get to see here. Also much of the jewelry I have for sale is listed there. The page is brand new but in the future, if all goes well, I will probably be offering exclusive deals and raffles there as well. And I would be happy to like your page back if you have one also. :)
Here's the link to it BTW lol - https://www.facebook.com/pyrospaintings

Questions and thanks and stuff...
Posted 11 years agoSo I realize I don't really have an artist statement like most people where I am talking about myself like where I'm from and what I like. I figure most of you don't really care about that kind of stuff, you are here to see pretty pictures or weird monsters or whatever the case may be. But it occurred to me that maybe that makes me seem stand-offish? I hope not! I wanted to let you guys know that you should feel free to leave a shout now and then or leave feedback or ask me a question, I always try to respond to my messages and I really enjoy having discussions with you and hearing your opinions!
I really wanted to thank you guys for welcoming me into the community. I don't really consider myself a furry, I mean I don't have fursuits or anything, I just love animals and cool animal and anthro art. I can't believe I have almost 150 watchers already, and I have only been on this site (checks registry date) oh wow I have been on here for just over a year! You guys are so awesome and inspiring! Thank you to everyone who stops by, leaves a comment or a friendly hello, watches or faves my art. I really appreciate it.
With all that being said, I was wondering do you have any questions for me, either about my life or what you'd like to see more of, or just art in general?
I have a question for you- what inspires you? Do you have a favorite animal or species? And what is your favorite monster from movies or myths/legends- they are all fair game. :)

Weasyl?
Posted 11 years agoI just made a Weasyl account, does anybody else have one? I could use some friends/people to follow even though I really have no idea what I am doing yet. lol I need your pretty arts to look at, so send me some links if you've got 'em! :D And no, I am not leaving FA just trying to branch out a little.
Update and commission status...
Posted 11 years agoHey everyone! I just wanted to check in and let everyone know what's going on in my little corner of the world. I know I have been uploading a lot of crafts lately, brace yourself because more are coming! Later on today or tomorrow I will be uploading a gift I've made for my Grandmother. I have another pet portrait to do coming up, and I have already started another model kit for Out of the Darkness. So this is looking like it's going to be another pretty productive month. It's only May and I already feel like I have done more this year than I did all of last year. I may be wrong, but it sure feels that way! Also I have a huge multiple person portrait to finish by mid-june. So with that in mind, commissions are CLOSED for now until my schedule opens up a bit more. Anyway, I just wanted to give you guys an update. As always, thank you to my lovely watchers, both new and old, anyone who views and favorites my art. I really appreciate all your support! You guys give me the motivation to keep going and keep putting my stuff out there for the world to see even when I struggle or think things aren't good enough. I can't imagine what life would be like without you guys. So thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

I will need a good reference of your character or pet and payment will need to be made up front through paypal only please. ( I will note you with that info once you have secured a slot.) I am usually able to finish these in a day or two but may take up to a week. Depending on the amount of interest I may open for more once these are finished.
If you are interested please leave a comment with your ref below and I will be going through them and updating this journal later tonight or tomorrow. Thanks guys :)

Merry Christmas!
Posted 11 years agoI hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season. I just wanted to stop in and say Merry Christmas to you! I have lots of plans for the new year so watch this space! :D
It's Alive.... it's ALIVE!!
Posted 11 years agoYaaaay FA is back from the dead. It's nice to see new things in my message box other than what has been there for like the past 6 days.
Inactivity
Posted 12 years agoSorry for the lack of art lately everyone. I have been working on some things and just haven't gotten around to finishing and posting them. Also I have been playing video games a lot instead of painting because when I am only making art for myself I am a horrible horrible procrastinator. I just wanted to let everyone know I am still alive and everything. I hope all is well with you. Also I am still open for commission and with the holidays coming up I could use the money. If you are interested please feel free to check out my commission info here- http://fav.me/d6gjmzb and feel free to ask me any questions you might have, even if it's for something not listed there or a question on pricing; I'm sure we could work something out. Thanks everyone!
Still Open for Commissions
Posted 12 years agoI have decided to open up some limited commission types. Please visit this link- http://fav.me/d6gjmzb to see types and prices :) and note me if you're interested. Thanks.
New to FA
Posted 12 years agoHello everybody. I'm new here, so I'm still trying to figure everything out. Please bear with me as I become more familiar around here. My primary art site is at Pyro-Helfier.deviantArt.com but I decided to make one here as well to broaden my horizons since I hear many good things about it from my DA buddies. :) Sorry if I'm currently spamming anyone as I upload a backlog of past art to my gallery. I'm probably going to make myself a personalized icon soon, and then after that I hope to explore the site some more. :D I'm looking forward to browsing some art around here. I've already stumbled upon some talented folks without even trying!
