I think it's the only way to go

Oh I need to look into that!! Especially since I think you can cross-post between Bluesky and Mastodon πŸ€” I've got a couple friends on a dragon server over there, so maybe I should hop over :D

Yeah, I've wondered if it makes sense to be on FA if I intend to stay a SFW artist πŸ˜… I feel like it used to be the center of the furry internet and I like how old-school the site feels, but I wouldn't want it to be my only gallery site.

Artists who maintain multiple accounts on various art sites, where else are you posting? I'm thinking I need to diversify beyond just Bluesky, but I'm not sure where else to go. I post enough furry stuff to merit an fA, I think? And is Cara still a thing?

Documenting everything can feel like such a chore when your queue is backed up. Especially when your socials evolve from, "look what I made!" to updates on client work. That being said, I bet all of us would delighted to see even quick snaps of your work ❀️

I'm on CSP now; I went from Photoshop to Krita to CSP and my Ps brushes got lost in the shuffle

I went from Photoshop to Krita and their brush engines are very different from one another

This is an instantly-click-follow kind of artwork :D the contrast with the gold and black is so beautiful!

Well that was an instant follow! Thanks for reposting :D

Sketchy digital bust painting of Avira the dragoness' new design. Her fur is a dark grey that fades to deep charcoal on her snout and ear tips. A blaze of silver runs down her forehead and frames her eyes which are a vibrant indigo violet. Her triple horns and neck scales are the same vivid purple with iridescent highlights in fuscia. She has a crest of charcoal fur that runs from between her horns down the back of her neck. Avira's mouth is open in a friendly smile, revealing silver teeth and a purple forked tongue.

Futzing around with a more painterly style, which used to be my favorite until I lost access to Photoshop (and hence my most beloved blending brush LOL). This is still pretty sketchy, but, I would love to keep developing this look <3

Ok, silly question but how are you making an easy screen recording?

Yeah it would really bother me to see such things without warning... especially since I like to browse while on public transit. I've had to unfollow a few folks who post/repost bikini-clad or even fully clothed but sensually posed characters because I can't be accidentally exposing people to that...

A blotched tabby cat painted in the particular style of 19th century oil paintings that featured exaggerated and large livestock. The extra-large cat has a very small head and legs and his body is very rectangular. In the background behind him is a pastoral scene with a mulberry tree behind him, and a smaller pawpaw tree farther off in the distance.

Finished commission for @pickalope.bsky.social's cat, Samson, in the style of those 19th century paintings of oversized rectangular farm animals. I was SO EXCITED to do one of these!! TYSM for commissioning me! 🧑

I clicked for the model but was immediately distracted by something called "Bamboo Handy" which sounds like slang for something crude 😭😭😭
