Major life changes
General | Posted 4 months agoWithout getting political I am losing my career of 13 years due to my trans identity.
13 years of hard work and dedication feels like it has been ripped from me. I have alot of emotions surrounding this, but I've come to a space of peace with it all. I feel this has come at a good time for me in my life. I dont align with the agenda, my unit has run me ragged and finding joy in anything had become near impossible.
I had no time to draw, make music, or really even do anything that brings me joy. Depression honestly hit me hard over the lsst two years. Being told I am being kicked out in turned kicked my butt into gear when it comes to putting myself a little bit higher on my own priority list. In short it's really looking like a blessing in disguise.
As of now I am on indefinite leave of absence until I have my offical end date. I am taking this time to better myself, get my hobbies back, and spend what time I have left with Giotto (I cant believe my boy is almost 15, where does the time go).
We will be moving back across the country soon, but my first goal is to just recoup after the whirlwind that has been the last two years.
I am also being evaluated for disability and benifits, so I know even after I lose my career I will have something coming in as its looking like I will be leaving with at least an 70- 80% VA disability rating, which I am going to fight for higher (we all seem to have to).
As for a job, well I finally am reaching my life long goal and will be working in a hospital as a chaplain. I am fortunate enough to know the director and he has a spot waiting for me as they want to keep the pagan representation alive in their trauma centre.
Its been alot, but I really am looking forward to having my life back and being creative in some shape or form. Ill be posting pictures of some of my projects that I was able to work on, not really furry related but they have kept me sane the last few months.

7 month training -slow to no art
General | Posted 2 years agoSo I finally after years of trying got back on active duty, I finally was granted my new contract!
With this comes a 7-9 month training period where I will have very limited time to work on art. Arguably for a good chunk of it will not have my ipad at all.
Alot is going to happen from around June to probably January time frame. I am currently packing up my house, working on arrangements for Gio, and setting up as much as I can for a smooth transition back to active duty life.
I would like to get one more piece done before I go, and if you want more updates twitter is the place to find them (for now if that doesnt implode while im gone), from WIPs, to general posts and updates.
Below is also my linktree. Which I will add to over the month:
https://linktr.ee/EnricoGhiottone
When I get back I am hoping to really develop my art and music again, and the job security really should help. I'll also start streaming and all that as I have a number of projects I am really looking forward to.
Until I leave I will be on here periodically,
Anyway,
Thank you to the support over the years, even when I went months upon months with out updating.
Cheers!

Anthrocon
General | Posted 3 years agoSo I'm scrambling to have everything done intime for my flight on Wednesday for AnthroCon.
I am extremely excited, as this is a con I've wanted to attend for years.
While I have decided to leave my instruments at home this time, I do plan on doing alot of art and hanging out.
I am also running my first solo panel on Friday. Ace 101 from 7-8 on Friday.
But if anyone wants to meet up and say hi, feel free to message me on twitter or telegram: both account @'s are EnricoGhiottone

Recent flow of adult art
General | Posted 3 years agoFor now, the only way to get NSFW art from me will be through YCHs.
I plan on doing one a month...or at least try.
As for the flow of adult art, I was considering having a separate gallery for it. But, I haven't decided yet. Here you can filter if you do or don't want to see mature art, so I think it's a bit unnecessary.
At the same time, I like having a 'clean' gallery.
My twitter will certainly stay separate

Carity stream for Ukraine and other info
General | Posted 4 years agoI have offically returned to my full time job. It is taking alot of readjusting, but slowly getting back to it.
I have received a few notes about commissions.
For the time being I am closed and will remain so for a bit.
I was considering opening for badges for at con delivery for AC and Furrydelphia, but those are not on the radar quite yet.
Also no more YCHs for a bit, mainly due to time (the two currently being worked on are on track to be completed this month)
I have started to stream. Still hashing out the kinks and will be doing my next test Wednesday before my charity stream for Ukraine on Saturday (info and link here. Had a few slots open still)
https://twitter.com/EnricoGhiottone/status/1500882362917392393?t=7hxogl_4AsSfJmSkQ-Bdrw&s=19
Otherwise, I am over all trying to create a more active and professional appearance.
Here is my link tree if you ever want to find me on other platforms. This is getting updated almost daily to include more links to things like trello, stream schedules and the link.
https://linktr.ee/EnricoGhiottone
Any way, that's about all I have for now

YCHs coming
General | Posted 4 years agoThe horse YCH is already posted.
I am planning at least two more, ones where it can be any species.
So far I am thinking one more NSFW and a SFW.
General commissions are closed for the time being.

Anthro New England and Post Surgery update
General | Posted 4 years agoSo in a last minute decision, it looks like I will be attending ANE.
I am still going to be taking it very easy, so no saxophones or guitars this time.
But I will have my ipad, sketchbook, and probably my switch if anyone wants to connect on that.
beyond that, this will be a con I think I finally slow down and instead of running around and preparing for concerts and panels, I will just leisurely attend those that interest me and over all just hang out.
other than ANE, Anthrocon and WPAFW are the only other cons I am currently planning (Maybe MFF).
I would love to do Eurofurence again, but even if that occurs and I could get to Germany, I do not still feel right flying internationally. So sadly, only US cons for now.
I also am currently scheduled to deploy again soon, so I do want to have some fun, but doing it as safely as possible.
But post-op, I am feeling really good. Limited movement and really constricting weight limit.
So if you are attending ANE, I hope to see you there, otherwise I plan on opening for a few badge commissions for AC delivery in April.
Beyond that, I plan on taking it easy for the next month.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico

New home, streaming, art/music updates
General | Posted 4 years agoSo,
while I can not say it is complete; I can say that my half-cross country move is now at a point where I can get back to my life.
Very few know, but, I just went through an extremely stressful move. My last landlord attempted a lot of things that would have cost me a good chunk of money, but thankfully with the guidance from my lawyer I dodged that.
But the full story on that is not important here, and it is in the past.
As for my new home, I am still unpacking and all that, but I have the important things set up. With that I do plan on getting back to my schedule from my last update with proposed streaming nights added:
'Monday, Wednesday, and Friday: Days off
Tuesday and Thursday: Art and possible streaming nights
Saturday: May become another streaming day, perhaps a music focused one
Sunday: This a free for all day, it will probably look a lot like my Saturdays.
Remember, this is after working a full 10 hour day M-F.
I also may be getting a new job. A job I really want, but I am still in a very extensive interview process and there is no guarantees at this point.
I will be reaching out to some individuals that I owe responses to as well,
but talking and responding to people has been extremely difficult for me with everything that has happened over the last two months or so.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico

Update and new work schedule
General | Posted 4 years agoWell, I definitely feel like I owe an explanation.
But my work has been absolutely running me through the ringer, long story short; I am filing a discrimination claim against my command.
So, not that this is an excuse by any means, by the time I get home from work I lock myself in my room and play games to unwind or go to the park and run myself to execution.
I avoid conversation with most people, and have selected a few that I talk to just to keep myself sane. But, I've decided it was high time that I got out of this strange rut I've been in for about a year now.
I have a few commissions out there, and after drafting a work schedule, I plan on holding myself to it. I am a very plan orientated person, and without it I am sure nothing will ever get done. So with that said I am implementing this schedule for myself:
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday: These are my days off from art to focus on my work out routine and to play games to unwind before bed.
Tuesday and Thursday: These are art days.
Saturday: So long as the weather holds I like to go for a bike ride these days, but unless I have Drill this is a mixed bag of art, games and trying to enjoy my weekend.
Sunday: This a free for all day. I work on or do what feels right this day, so it will probably look alot like my Saturdays.
Still figuring out how to work my music into this set up also.
Remember, this is after working a full 10 hour day M-F. So I will do my absolute best to stick to this, but there may be times when I deter based on the type of day I had at work.
My transition on my personal side has been going very well, but my unit has made it impossible to want to even exist some days and that really has affected me in all areas, in particular my creative outlets. I have done a number of things over the past year that I regret and am not proud of. But it is what it is, and now I am addressing it and forcing myself to be better.
All the best,
Rev. Rico

Small commision queue opening
General | Posted 4 years agoI am considering opening for three slots, but admittedly I may be rather selective on which I take. Currently I am not open for NSFW work, unless its a nude pin up or somthing along those lines.
This really is just to get me drawing again with purpose, as I am finding it hard to carve the time out for myself and hope maybe drawing other characters will get me out of my rut.
If you want an alternate version of something. We can discuss in DM/notes about the price based on what it is you want. But I don't expect this to be more than a 15$ upchange (at the full body tier).
I know in the past I have included this on occasion, but learned that the altering to line art and other aspects of the peice made it so that I felt I was undercharged for the time the alternate took.
Here are some base line rules and prices; I am always opent I answer any questions you may have. All prices are in USD.
Head shots:
Lines: 15
Flat (Includes color background that compliments your character): 20
Full color (included colored simple background as well as white background): 25
+ 5 for additional character
Examples from this tier:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/29927406/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/29958792/
Thigh up:
Lines: 20
Flat (Includes colour background that compliments your character): 25
Full colour (included colored simple background as well as white background): 30
+ 10 for additional character
Examples from theirs tier:

Full body:

Other Examples of completed pieces:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/30234986/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/30545625/
Simple backgrounds will be included.
If you want something more detailed I will be willing to do detailed work for an extra 5-10 depending on the size of the image (This will be discussed through direct messaging).
All payments are through PayPal and are due upon receipt and approval of the clean sketch (step before lines and flats being sent).
My general polices are as follows:
Once a sketch is received payment is due. In the sketching stage this is where you can make the extreme adjustments. Once Line art is completed no adjustments to the pose or character will be made unless it is a mistake on my end. Once the line art is done I will do base colours, again this is the time to change the colours or if I have misinterpreted any markings, make those adjustments. This must be done before shading.

return to art and music
General | Posted 4 years agoSo I have about a week and a half of my degree left, as well as I am finishing grading some of my undergrad's papers and what not.
So I have been super burnt out lately, that even sketching and practicing my instruments has been near non existent.
I am back on orders in NY over the summer, but I will have my iPad and some of my instruments to make my hotel room feel more like home.
So I should be active again here, and on twitter, in about two weeks.
See you soon,
Rev. Rico

HRT and brief update
General | Posted 5 years agoJust had my first appointment for HRT today, next week we draw blood and if those labs go well then I could be on Testosterone as early as the second week of February... so long as my command gives me to ok or turns a blind eye until the updated policy is finalized.
I am feeling a wave of emotions; excitement, fear, impatience, nervous...and so so many others.
As for music, well I hurt myself pretty good at work last week, so music is out for a few weeks.
I will still pick away at art, but my left hand likes to make its self known by cramping at the best times...it truly is amazing.
Well, this is all I have at the moment.
As always, I am very active on Twitter enricoghiottone
Cheers!

life update/ coming out
General | Posted 5 years agoI just realised I haven't updated much here about what has been going on recently.
To start on a more personal side:
I recently came out as trans. It is something I have always known, but have hidden for a number of reasons. And well... it has been an absolute shit show since. My job is very restrictive on my rights as a trans individual. I will not go into it, but if you know anything about the US military's ban on trans service members...well I am wrapped up in that. My family took it about...well how I expected based on the individual. It has in many ways ruined a lot of relationships for me, and I feel it has ruined some potential good things I was looking forward to in the future. But, I will not bog this journal down with all the depressing details.
Like many of us, the last few months have been rather rough on me. So art is slow, and twitter is the best bet to see WIPs.
But finished work is going to be real slow...and in some ways, it will be long stretches between uploads until things settle.
I am currently on Active duty orders and am living out of a hotel (and have been since March). By September 1st I hope to be on my way back to some type of normalcy and in my new flat. The hotel life has really brought me down and does make sitting down to draw difficult.
Though, good news, once I get my new place I plan on investing in some equipment to record music and even get a better drawing set up and hopefully uploads will start popping up again. Though, I may make a separate page for my music, haven't decided yet.
I do poke around here at least a few times a week, but as mentioned above; if you want to see the activity, twitter is where I am most active.
anyway, I hope to upload some art here soon.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico

I'm not leaving
General | Posted 5 years agoI am sure many of you have read FA's updated policy in regards to some content.
First, I want to establish that I respect this decision and hold no ill thoughts against those who made it.
I will take my next day off to remove any pieces that violate this new policy, save them on my drive if need be and go from there.
With this said, I am not abandoning the story line, I will work with some options for future posting (such as my own website and what not).
However, this has driven me to really focus on the main aspect of my story, as well as develop skills in other artistic avenues. I can not ignore that the uniform in question will appear in my art at points, its just a reality of the story I am trying to tell. But, I have always wanted to make it clear that it was never the focus. Admittedly, I have not done the best job of that with a few select characters. I tend to get comfortable in something, and uniforms are just something I am extremely comfortable with.
So no, I am not fleeing the site. I will be around so long as I am welcome.
I will still focus on my passion; and work with dark, military, and mafia related themes. If I do find another place to post, I will defiantly update everyone.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico

I will take my next day off to remove any pieces that violate this new policy, save them on my drive if need be and go from there.
With this said, I am not abandoning the story line, I will work with some options for future posting (such as my own website and what not).
However, this has driven me to really focus on the main aspect of my story, as well as develop skills in other artistic avenues. I can not ignore that the uniform in question will appear in my art at points, its just a reality of the story I am trying to tell. But, I have always wanted to make it clear that it was never the focus. Admittedly, I have not done the best job of that with a few select characters. I tend to get comfortable in something, and uniforms are just something I am extremely comfortable with.
So no, I am not fleeing the site. I will be around so long as I am welcome.
I will still focus on my passion; and work with dark, military, and mafia related themes. If I do find another place to post, I will defiantly update everyone.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico
future Commission openings & AC2020
General | Posted 5 years agoI am caught up on owed work so far, and currently I have two weeks left of this semester.
With that, I am debating if I will be opening for commissions again, at least in the near future. I am at the point where I feel my art is very hit and miss and my turn around time is just simply awful. I do not want to run my queue like this, it is not fair to the commissioner and I do not believe that sheds a good light upon me.
I do believe the work load from Uni and my job does directly impact a lot of factors with my art.
Personally, I want to work with my characters again, as many have been left to the way side. I also have some gift pieces I have planned to thank some amazing people who have greatly impacted my life over the past year.
I will revisit this after I wrap up the semester, but if I do open it will be for one or two slots at a time.
Remember, I post sketches and what not to my twitter. Because of this, I appear much more active on that platform. I also hope to get into more recording of my music.
As for Anthrocon, it is still on my radar and I hope this con is still a go.
Anyway,
Hope everyone is staying safe, entertained and healthy.
Cheers,
Rev. Rico

Preforming at Furnal Equinox
General | Posted 6 years agoWell, I have gone and done it again. I will be attending FE2020, should be arriving by early afternoon on Friday.
I will be performing at both of the foxes and peppers shows on baritone saxophone. So if you are around, look for the short thing with a giant sax.
If you are there and want to met up/say hello hit me up on telegram or twitter enricoghiottone
It is amazing that this was my first con back in 2016, and to look back and see how far I already have come in those few years (including almost two year break due to deployment).
Hope to see a few of you there!

Commissions Openning next week
General | Posted 6 years agoSo I have until the 5th off from work and school,
because of this I have decided to open for a new round of commissions starting Tuesday.
So first and foremost I will spend Sunday and Monday catching up on owed art. This absolutely comes first, but I need a day just to myself.
I am going to say, I will open for SFW and NSFW slots, but really have found that I do not enjoy NSFW so I will only have one slot for this, as it seems to take me longer to do.
Slots:
1 (NSFW).
2.
3.
4.
comment or DM to claim and I will update the journal as they fill.
refer to this journal for prices and examples:

Impulse MFF attendance
General | Posted 6 years agoWell...seeing as I only live about an hour and 45 minutes away from Chicago and had to go there in December anyway...well its happening.
I will be preforming again, so look for a short punk thing with a saxophone.
Don't be shy, I am very friendly I promise.
Still figuring out a place to crash, but other than that I am all set and will be registering next week after I get paid. So expect me around Friday late morning/early afternoon through Sunday late morning (maybe later depending how quickly I get things taken care of at the base, I have to be back home by 2200/10pm to go to work...so of course I would like to be able to take a quick nap first).
Also if any one know some one open for badge commissions, let me know, I would love to pick up a badge of Enrico with her sax dressed in the 1920s styles clothing.
Hope to see some of you around,
Enrico!

Updates and December commisions
General | Posted 6 years agoSo finally, after 6 months of busting my ass and trying my best I finally got a hold of a full time job! I start November 10th, and this included immediate benefits...which my lord I need to see a dentist before i rip my own molar out.
Though this good news comes with some bad.
I will be unable to attend Furvester as it is far too close to my hire date to get the time off.
though by EF26 I should be good to go! I wanted to attend Confuzzled but I am in a place were I have to chose one and I think EF is the better choice for me at this point, also puts more time in my job so they will be more willing to give me the time off.
Though due to my hours and how close I am to Chicago I may be t MFF2020, we will see. And of course I will still go to WPAFW or another con that is close to me that does not require time off.
Now for art updates!
School is kicking my ass, there is no way around it. I am doing my best with what I have and have about...three that are currently just sitting on my Ipad. Sadly I am using my Ipad for school and that effects my ability to use it for art. I will be investing in a art only tablet once I get more on my feet.
Though in the wake of not being able tot attend furvester I will try my best to make up for it by cranking some art out.
Stay tuned and hope all is well for you wherever in the world you are,
Enrico.

Twitter and WPAFW
General | Posted 6 years agoBecause the school semester is in full swing, the posting of completed art is going to be few and far between.
However, I am super active on Twitter, and I often post WIPs and pieces that often will never be seen here.
Also, I will be at WPAFW this year from 3-6th October, so if you are going there don't be afraid to say hi.
Hope all is good out there in fuzzy land.
Ciao for now,
~Enrico

At EF25
General | Posted 6 years agoSo I am officially at the hotel and recovering from jet leg.
My Twitter will be where I post most of my updates but in general I am sure I'll find myself alot of the time in the artist lounge. There are already a few panels I have my eye on as well.
Though the big focus for me is the fact I am performing on alto sax at both the main and charity shows.
As mentioned before, I can be rather shy, but dont be afraid to say hello. If you want to message me first twitter or telegram is best. My username on both is EnricoGhiottone
Below is the obligatory EF meme:
Where are you staying?
Estrel
Sharing a room with:
A good friend
What is your gender?
Female and female pronouns. But I will not be offended if male pronouns are used as I can be quite masculine. Also Djentleman/woman is accepted
:P
Relationship Status:
Single, but not looking and am not looking for cuddles or hook ups.
How old are you?
26
Which languages do you speak?
English and I do speak German, I understand and read it better than anything but after a bit of fumbling I get over myself and speak.
Where will you be most of the time during the day?
Wondering around, attending a few panels of interest. Artist lounge once that opens
Who will you be with?
Hopefully many different people
Can I dance with you?
I dont dance, please dont ask. If I attend the dance it's to enjoy my time otherwise
Can I talk to you?
Please do!
Can I hug you?
Please... I can not stress this enough, ask me first
I will hug back but dont do any surprise hugs, even if I know you.
Do you suit?
No
Can I take photos of you/with you?
Due to performing there will be pictures of me, but I'm not a huge picture person. But ask first, I'll most likely say yes.
Do you draw at the con?
Yes
Do you sell anything?
Not this go
Can I buy you lots of drinks?
I would prefer to know the individual, but over all I like to pay my own way.
Do you drink Alcohol?
Suggest a good beer and you will be my best friend. I am also a fan of whiskey and rum.
Are you nice?
I like to think I am, ignore my resting bitch face
Other cons you may go to?
WPAFW and Furvester if I get the time off.
Attending any events?
Obviously the concerts. But I plan on going to the mil-furs meet as well as a few other shows/panels
How can I find you at the con?
Twitter and telegram as mentioned before. My badge will read Enrico!
Are you buying art?
Hopefully, among other merch
What do I have to watch out for, when I am meeting you?
Please, if you ask me about my historical art please please dont ask the question of 'are you a nazi/alt-right ect...'
The answer is no, I am a historian and I study these time periods scholasticly.
You may ask about my faith and what it's like being an ordained monk, but please be respectful about any questions.
What is the best way to contact you?
Telegram and Twitter EnricoGhiottone
Will you tell me your room number and can I surprise visit you?
Please dont unless it the invention is extended.
I have a personal question for the convention. May I ask you that?
I am willing to talk about anything really, besides the mentioned above.

Last chance for commissions-closing until further notice
General | Posted 6 years agoI will be accepting only two more commissions before closing until further notice.
Good news, I was presented a conditional hire package, and once the background check is done I will be hired as a full time corrections officer (Which being military reserves and holding clearances, they are not concerned and neither am I).
This means I will be working and attending graduate school full time. Any drawing I would be doing at that point will be personal or if I have anything outstanding, will be completed at this time.
With this new job, besides paying down debts and paying bills I will be saving for a tablet beyond the Ipad. So I am hoping to take my art to the next level.
But after EF I will not feel comfortable taking on new commissions due to time constraints. If I feel I am managing my time well enough this may change. But at this point I can say the soonest opening will be December after this (maybe WPAFW if I am still attending).
Information on commissions:
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9189263/
I am of course open to talk through Notes and DM on twitter.

Slow updates, however commissions will remain open
General | Posted 6 years agoSo,
I took my beloved Giotto, that is my pup, to the vet. we are new to our area and wanted to ensure his health and that we have a clinic near our new home.
After being separated for over a year I had a feeling he would have a yeast infection in his ears, as he has always been prone to those. I was correct. However, during his check up the vet said she heard something concerning with his heart. I told her that when he was a puppy I was told he had a heart murmur. She advised me this was not what was worrying her and suggested a blood panel to be done. I of course agreed with out question.
As most of you know, I am with out a job and I am living on my savings. The estimated cost of the visit went from 55 to over 400. A price I am glad I paid, but really didn't have to spare. His results came back and he has been diagnosed with Cognitive Heart Failure (CHF). Now I will not go into detail there, I will say this turned my world upside down.
To put it simply, my world revolved around Giotto. He is more than my pet, but he is also my partner. For years we have worked together and the idea that my son/ partner has a serious condition is rattling to say the least. A lot is changing, from diet to medications. And my monthly expenses on him just flew through the roof.
I know there is the question of what this means for commissions. Well I am leaving them open as I need the extra cash flow until I figure out some things. I just needed a few days to processes the prognosis at its worst. The two current slot holders, I would like to have done by the end of this weekend as well an outstanding commission.
NOW before someone mentions about me attending EF, WPAFW and Furvester while being tight on cash!
Mind you these trips are paid for, plane tickets and all. The only thing is the actual hotels to be withdrawn. That is a lot of money to just lose. So I will be going to these conventions still. So no just not attending will not really solve my issues. I have done a lot a math and even selling my registrations and what not does not cover the fact I have spent thousands on plane tickets that are non-refundable(If you travel- get travelers insurance, get it! I am learning my lesson). I do have enough to pay my way until October, and if everything goes right I will getting my GI Bill along with drill pay. I am not completely out to dry, but things will be tight that is for sure.
Also moving across states is proving to be tedious, I had to pay for new licences, certifications and exams just to interview. I have at least 9 applications in with the county government alone. Hopefully I will be getting some calls in the next week or so.

Once Line art is completed no adjustments to the pose or character will be made unless it is a mistake on my end. Once the line art is done I will do base colors, again this is the time to change the colors or if I have misinterpreted any markings, make those adjustments. This must be done before shading.
NSFW: I will work with adult commissions if requested at no additional charge for pin-up/ artistic nude scenarios.
Other NSFW requests will be discussed privately.
EF Badges are also available for at con pick-up for $30USD. These will be themed and will be to the waist.
I will open for five slots to start:
Slot 1:
Slot 2:
Slot 3:
Slot 4:
Slot 5:
Any questions do not hesitate to reach out!
Ciao for now,
