Yep, I made the video that became the GIF that became my avatar. Despite that, I'm a New Yorker. (Oh, and scroll down--I draw stuff too).

ART INFO:
Currently Drawing?: (April 2026) I am actively drawing, but across several projects that I'm rotating amongst (including two commissions) to make the most of limited opportunities to set up and draw. There are a few limited-effort pieces (missing backdrops and other finishing) that I post to a Discord group, yes. But these will make it to FA in conjunction with finished pieces. Their descriptions will explain why they were delayed postings.
Streaming?: Watch this space
--I don't have a stream schedule, and I do them on a very irregular infrequent basis.
(An attempt at a test stream mid-October was derailed by a new install of OBS repeatedly crashing on launch)
-- "Watch this space" will become a date/time if I know in advance when I'll have the time and a suitable project to work on.
-- If I'm actually streaming, the link will appear above instead, whether planned or spur-of-the-moment.
--Slow Connection? Limited Data?: I don't know if these are even factors anymore with the proliferation of broadband with uncapped home and mobile data, but my uploads are among the better-compressed around here, averaging around 150K for color, and 100-ish for B/W. In 2024 I became aware that a lot of pics here now average above 1MB, but nobody's complaining about the resolution or filesize of my uploads.
---2019: I don't size my uploads for 4k monitors. Lacking the space for a desktop PC+large monitor, I do all my work on laptops with less than 4k screens, and I've found scrolling around 2000+ pixel images is a pain in the butt, especially after having to [Download] them to be able to read any dialogue.
--I Always enter descriptions with my uploads. Even if they're commissions. Since I'm a firm believer in being able to effectively convey information, I add a "Technical" section to write about techniques and tactics used in the creation of the pic (especially if I learn something new), as well as the inspiration that made it happen. So oftentimes they are long-winded. But you'll learn stuff about what went into a given submission
--Keep up with what I'm doing art-wise: See this Journal--> (link) Last Update: 03/27/26 - 05:56p . The info there will change as I start, advance and complete art projects, (including commissions) sometimes several times a day if I'm actually working on something. This journal gets updated instead of spamming my watchers with status journals.

-Gallery Maintenance: A list (changelog) of tweaks, corrections and updates to my uploads. Updated 08/12/24.
-Commissions: Check --> here <--for offerings, prices and other info. Updated 12/11/2022
-Art trades?:
---Online: Yes, if no outstanding commissions are in-progress*
---At Conventions: Yes
---(I always complete my half of a trade (once it is mutually agreed upon). I'll link to your half when it's done)
*(trades should ideally occur between artists of roughly equal ability...otherwise it gets awkward)
--I havenine eleven fourteen main characters Tour their profiles. <--[link] (None of them are 'fursonas', however. I do not have one, and probably never will).
--All of my characters are long-term ones with varying social ties to each other, expressed in a comic, What, me Furry? that I started around the time I first became aware of this fandom around 1997 (and re-started in 2021 after an 11-year hiatus). The aim is to use this comic and the events taking place within it to provide a baseline behavior reference for other character owners who might envision their OC's interacting with mine, hopefully one day building a network of creators whose OC's cross paths with each other in artwork and short-form comics suggesting that multiple character owners' creations "know" each other and socialize accordingly. See -->this journal <--
.
--(TL:DR... I am looking for opportunities to have my OC's interacting with those of other people's, preferably with context making said interaction believable)
--I may occasionally move a pic to scraps, but I don't clear my gallery in whole or in part. If you +fave something of mine, it's not going to turn into a grey box.
--I have no plans to establish additional accounts for other categories of work. I use FA's folder system.
-Content Forecast: +90% General Audience. That's just where most of my inspiration lies. I'm not opposed to drawing full-on NSFW but believe it or not, I am rarely asked if I even draw it. I've had only four commissions during my FA presence since 2005 that would qualify as "Adult" (and only one of those involved two characters), all occurring at convention artist-alleys. I look forward to one day drawing and posting a bunch of justifiably red-bordered material on my own, but it may take people commissioning NSFW from me to jumpstart them earlier than if left to my own devices owing to my backlog of other inspiration.
----Trivia: As of 11/17/2025 I have 290 submissions with 1000+ pageviews. Of those, four are Adult, eight are Mature, and 278 are General, with 104 of those over 2000 views, 48 of those topping 3000, nine that topped 4000, three with 5000+ and one with 6000+ (courtesy of FA's 'Stats' feature)
--Don't let my watcher count fool you...it took me ten years to reach the first 1000. Many artists (and for that matter, non-artists who buy lots of commissions of an attractive OC) manage to do that in as little as two years
-Critique: If you see something amiss on a recent upload and mention it early enough, (and it bothers me enough) I may well fix it and reupload the piece
----(That also means I don't play that game of asking for feedback then blocking you for saying "That (insert piece of anatomy) looks off")
-Comments: Don't be afraid to comment on old submissions (or for that matter, recent ones). Really. If it's a question or something else that I can answer, I will. Look down below at my comments given vs comments received stats. I look at FA several times a day, so I see new comments/notes within a day of their being sent (though sometimes I have to think about my answer).

[Registration] - [Hotel]] - [Transportation] - [Artist's Alley]: Anthrocon 2026 (July 2 - July 5)
-Faving activity: I tend to cluster faves according to content rating, mostly to keep a buffer between General and Adult pieces. If I've +watched you and your content consists mostly or exclusively of NSFW or General pieces, then depending on which type of work I'm currently faving, you may see a cluster of faves right off the bat, or if not, then a few days/weeks down the line.
-Does fan or gift art?: Infrequently, due to my backlog of personal works waiting for inks and color. Planned pieces are in a 'fanart queue' in the status journal linked above in orange text.
-Sanctions fanart/giftart of his own characters: Yes (No squick edits, That includes ABDL, geez)
-Does requests: Almost effectively ruled out, for the same reasons as fanart.
-Shouts in the form of questions will be answered via notes. Because a conversation via shoutbox looks weird.
-Email: This username at Mindspring.com. Or tack on a zero and change the domain to Gmail.
-Social Media: YouTube (and to a lesser extent, Discord) is the closest I get to "mainstream" social media. Not for any inability to use them, but I've seen too many downsides to mainstream social media. Twitt-X/Bluesky suck as art galleries since they aren't designed to make a body of work easily accessible beyond the newest posts. FA (and on occasion a couple of Discord servers) are the only places I post artwork. A few (as in 'less than a dozen') of my pieces have appeared on E621, but I didn't put them there. Owing to its isolation from the mainstream, I'm OK with them remaining.

2024 and 2025 Convention Event Recorder (G)
2 months ago
I make these posts every year to keep track of timelines of my convention planning. Somehow I missed posting one for 2024, so here it is along with 2025 . Both years I only attended Anthrocon:
2025 Convention Timeline:
--[01/17/2025]: Reserved vacation time for Anthrocon 2025
--[02/16/2025]: Registered for Anthrocon 2025
--[02/25/2025]: Made hotel reservation for Anthrocon 2025, Marriott CC. Will have to petition for an extra day, Thu-Mon wasn't available so I had to cut off Sunday to get availability
--[03/24/2025] E-mailed Orchid Events requesting the Sunday night to be added to my reservation
--[03/26/2025] Got a response from O.E. notifying me that my reservation has been updated with the additional day
--[05/01/2025] Signed up for Anthrocon Artist's Alley
--[05/18/2025] Purchased train tickets for Anthrocon (mental note: maybe a week late for the lowest return fare, went from $67 to $87 owing to my procrastination)
--[05/31/2025] Received notification of seat awarded in Anthrocon 2025 Artist's Alley, all three days. No seat pre-assignment this time though
--[06/26/2025]: Received seat selection for Anthrocon Artist Alley. I'll be at table L-09
--[06/28/2025]: Received email reservation confirmation from the Pittsburgh Marriott City Centre
2024 Convention Timeline:
[01/28/2024]: Registered for Anthrocon 2024 (pre-reg is needed to receive hotel reservation link via email)
[01/30/2024]: Filed PA sales tax for 2023 (delayed because PA's switch from e-Tides to MyPATH required you to request a snailmailed access document with a code to access your account, which takes "5-10 business days" to arrive...mine took 10 days and arrived on the 29th)
[01/31/2024]: Received 2024 tax ID document via PDF. This is necessary to apply for Artist's Alley this year.
[02/08/2024]: I was not able to get into the reservation system at the stroke of 5pm. I was travelling between work locations and could only access the system 15 minutes later. Needless to say the existing blocks are all sold out. I'll have to try the waitlist system once it's put in, but things are looking not-so good.
[03/05/2024]: Made waitlist reservation for Anthrocon 2024. I have no idea which hotel I'm going to wind up in.
[04/08/2024]: Received word from 'Anthrocon housing' that I've been placed in the Kimpton Monaco hotel. It's that classy joint you pass just before reaching the Omni, and while it's reasonably close to the Amtrak station come Monday, boy oh boy is that a pricey joint. $1135 total for four nights.
[04/10/2024]: Purchased train tickets for travel to/from Anthrocon
[04/22/2024]: Signed up for Anthrocon Artist's Alley
[06/01/2024]: Received notice of Anthrocon Artist Alley seat asssignment: C-31 for all three days
[07/01/2024]: Received email confirmation from the Kimpton Monaco for room reservations
I haven't completely ruled out other cons...Furnal Equinox (I renewed my passport after discovering to my dismay it had expired in 2023) and Furpocalypse are possibilities. FWA still has the "problem" (not their fault) of my return transportation of choice not arriving in Atlanta till 11pm, which is a loooong time to spend with my luggage following check-out and not having somewhere to take a load off till the train arrives.
