A small shout...Not a whine...

A lot of furs have asked me "Where do I get my inspiration from":

My inspiration comes form the world around me and what my heart tells me to draw. A lot of my images deal with real life situations, a lot of them questionable and private. I can tell you that half of these images come from situations I have been through with friends and the others are situations that other people have been through or predicaments that others might have faced. My fuel for my creative outlet comes from the lack of social gatherings and also loneliness. It was hard for me to talk or open myself up to others in the past and sometimes today, so I draw out what I feel or what I am thinking.

Some warn me that I am opening myself up too much when I draw something or write a story that goes with my images. In truth, yes, I do open myself up to the right and wrong people here and also on other websites. But I hide it by not saying which images that are solely based on my life. I keep it hidden for that particular reason.

Many of my images deal with love and relationships. I can tell you that my past relationships had both up and downs, which led to lying and heartbreak. In some images, I draw what I wish I could have or feel or touch again, but know that I will never get it because maybe "God" doesn't want me to be with anyone. Sensitive, Kind, Nurturing, and Honest? Are those good or bad traits to have in this modern world today?

Anyone can easily draw out what they feel, but the image cant make sense without a story or description that goes along with it. Simplicity captures the eye rather than something very complex. Life is your Muse. When she talks to you, you answer by creating something. That is how you grow as an artist and that is also how you find your own self through your creative outlet.

thats very intressting to hear
from the piccs you draw and how living they seems to be I was almost sure that some express part of your own experience.
I like them a lot, I personal failure to put some of my deep feelings into art and give them a story.
I keep most of my bad feelings and sadness for myself probarly for the same reason you have^^
and just sometimes express them in really rare piccs.
Im really thankfull to see art that reflects situations I had been throw sometimes or feelings :3
I love your pictures because they are so personal and heartfelt. I think we can all empathise with the subjects in a universal way. Thanks for sharing.
I think we all love your pictures because they're so full of life and because they tell stories that happens for everyone, in fact, I think that everyone can identify in one of your characters and tell "it happened the same to me" or " I felt the same". Your pictures are so special and they can relate so well with the viewers exaclty because they come from RL situations. As you said, "life is the muse". I wish I could tell my stories like you, there are a lot of artists that prefer speaking with drawings, and not with simple words. It's always good to see that your art is made mostly with your heart and feelings.

:arc:"Furry conventions are mostly like a weekend of 24/7 yiffing and furpiling. At the end there is so many bodily fluids that they declare the convention area a toxic zone.":arc:
The truth, raised from the FurAffinity Forums.
Your images are great but in all honesty it's your write-ups that intrigue me. Honestly some are quit dark but all are well writen and seam heart felt.

No' It's nothing as ambiguous as "memory".
Ouch, like looking into a mirror...
I don't do the fur thing, personally, but what attracts me to watching you is your honesty and ability to put emotions into words, both in the form of short stories and hypothetical questions. You make me think, and inspire me in the process ;) Your art is a really pleasant bonus!

I used to have super powers... but my therapist took them away :crazy:
Sound logical all of that.

And it's a good things to do.

My personnal vision of art are when you put emotion/feeling in something, like a drawing, picture, sculpture, etc...

Lovely logic, you can't find too many artists that put so much depth and emotion into their drawings, and a story to go with it. Done with anthros nonetheless. Best art ever.
...Well said. Simply well said.
