Art Flood!
Posted a month agoSooooo you might have noticed I have been posting a lot of art lately, almost all of it not mine.
This is a result of wanting to share/make public all the art I've had done over the last 30 years in the fandom. It's going to be a LOT of uploads, and I'm trying to stagger them out some.
I am uploading some of my own art as it's drawn.
Sorry for the flood!

Here we go...
Posted 4 months agoI joined the fandom in 1993.
Ever since joining, despite all the other things I'd dabbled in creatively, all the other things I've done both within and without the fandom, I always wanted to learn to draw.
I can remember being a kid and asking a classmate how he did it. I can remember all the false starts and heartache around never quite catching on as I went through the years.
Here we are, 31 years later. I've spent most of the last year working on myself as a project.
I started to poke around with AI - started to get the hang of Stable Diffusion, figured out how to optimize things...however there was this nagging feeling that I was cheating myself of the time I could have spent actually learning.
A friend told me to pick up an artistic pursuit as a way to deal with and control my ADHD. So I did. I took up learning to draw.
208 days later, I can safely say that it's become a hobby, and drawing once a day is a habit.
I may be a graymuzzle, and I may be a pretty rank amateur - as amateurs go - but I hope I can share what I do with those that would look, and you can come along with me.
I will also be posting some art from my friends and other artists that I have worked with over the years. There's a good bit of that, as we're talking 31 years of fandom....
