Watched this yesterday and I've been falling in love with the notion that Furry art is a form of Folk art. I feel like I've been jumping from one furry project to another since highschool and this is a label that for once feels accurate to the forms of relationship I've had with the fandom.
outsidewolves 🔜 FC@outsidewolves.bsky.social · 5d agoCurrently awaiting a quote on prints to send out monthly to Patreon subscribers. In the meantime I've set up a new way to tip me by helping keep my art supplies stocked! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... All these items are directly usable in my current process and will mostly be recurring refills
Really glad I made the switch from turpentine to lavender spike oil as a thinner. It always smells like lavender inside now it's fantastic. There is a mild tradeoff in slightly longer dry time but I'll take that over long term respiratory or worse problems.
Currently looking into what it would take to send out monthly postcard sized prints to Patreon subscribers. Want to use local print shops so I can have a hand in the fulfillment process. Hoping to announce something exciting for it soon!
Wait until they find out that some of them are the planes themselves and you have to go inside them.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · 5d agoTommy Tuberville: Many airline pilots, flight attendants, and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community. It's terrifying.
WIPs of a Dragon and Unicorn hoodie. It’ll have designs on the front, back and sleeves (forearms). I’ll be running a Kickstarter (or other better crowdfunding site?) to get them made. I’ll post more about it on my Patreon for paid and free members here: www.patreon.com/canisovis
I enjoy finding the path along the way with these #traditionalart #oilpainting #furry #furryart #hide
A couple updates to the thought process is uneven edges to make it look like there is more tension and to source frames and canvas from value packs. Going to be looking into different unusual frames for larger pieces in the future but I think this will keep costs low for a more accessible series
Chroma@chroma.bsky.social · 7d ago(CW: Horribly Lit Photos) I was really excited by the interest these "stretched hide" pieces were getting yesterday. Enough so that I want to start work on making these more accessible and into a series of paintings. Lots of ideas floating and will be excited to share that process

Record the ephemera. It's what you'll look back on a decade from now.
As depressing as some realizations of years of wasted time have been, the situation, while difficult, I find myself in is undeniably romantic. Working day after day on creating to build up to days where I get to celebrate art and making with a park full of furries is hard to beat.
First tent setup! #calanderson #seattle #furry #traditionalart #patches
Some initial coloring layers set. I bet once this dries I should be able to finish it in one more darkening and detail pass
A bit too wet to keep working today so going to let these layers dry
Chroma@chroma.bsky.social · 2w agoDrying time can be 3-4 days between layers with these paintings so I'm keeping the train going lol WIP on a new piece today
