Some people seem confused about the things I do and don't draw, so I thought it'd be useful to post in each of my galleries the things that I do and things I don't do. I'm going to include this at the bottom of all my journals in the future so that there's no doubt about what I do and don't do, and so that I don't have to repeatedly explain it to new people.

_____________________________________________


Things I like to draw:
Species: Centaurs, nagas, driders, and octo-people. Other 'taurs (cattaurs, etc.) are good too, and occasionally I'm in a satyr mood. "Extras" are also often fun --- people with extra arms, legs, whatever.
Styles: Anime-styled art's a favorite. Good comic-styled art's fun. Disney can be fun if it's not too young. I do photomorphs sometimes.
Content: Spunky, sweet, sexy, pretty, cute, or respectful character portraits. Loving, caring relationships. I prefer the PG-to-R range mostly, but I'll draw outside that if an idea I especially like is outside it. I'm a straight guy, and I'm far better at drawing women than men.

Things I don't like to draw:
Species: I don't draw mermaids, because everybody does 'em. I like furries well enough, but I don't draw them. I may draw humans if I feel like it, but it's more frequently as fanart than as anything else.
Styles: Traditional artwork. I'm lousy with paintbrush and pencil, so I don't use either; my stuff's all digital from start to finish, done entirely with a mouse.
Content: Gay/bi/lesbian/herm; I have nothing personal against people who are, but I'm straight, and so my art is too. Vore. Sex without love. Extreme sex acts. Kiddie porn. Inanimate TFs. Liquids spraying or covering people. Bestiality. Extreme violence. Cruelty and pain. Swear words.

Communication
I don't do commissions. I don't take requests. I'm very busy and don't have time for my own ideas, much less yours. If I like your characters, I may suggest to you the possibility of me drawing them, but please don't request it. But I really like chatting over IM with people about the things I like, even with strangers, and I can be very friendly over IM once you get to know me, so if you want to chat, go right ahead and IM me; I'm always happy to talk about this stuff.
