Though i respect every idea, i do not draw everything.
A short word on what i will and will not draw
First, i must clarify something. As a philanthropist, i strive to honour each aspect a human may carry around with himself, and not turn a blind eye to the strange, brutish darknesses that she may be consumed by.
The term "NSFW" is one that i disdain, as it puts a lock on something that is so evidently present to modern man, as if trapped inside a strange pandaemonium. Technically, all works of philosophy and the like would fall under the umbrella of "not safe for work" as well, as they put you at risk to lay down your work and pursue a new purpose in the valley of shadows.
What we think of when this term crosses our thoughts, are images which are overtly sexual or gory in nature.
This is where we encounter a grey area.
Think of paintings like "the birth of Venus", or figure studies. These depict nature as she is, in all her marvellous beauty. Not to mention her symbolic power, which invigorates the dim-grey scales of the soul to become feathers once again! When drawing creatures, i also draw them in their full anatomy and don't rid them of their sexual organs, if they possess them. It would be deceptive to censor and an affront to nature herself.
I must say that i do not shy away from controversy, but i simply have no interest in depicting something which only serves to hypnotise and enthral you: as if some vile, humanoid arachnid, waiting to chew upon the lining of your soul with its dulled teeth... all the while quivering at the thought of your own destruction!
Artwork that is focused on sexuality alone, devoid of meaning and amplified to be invasive to your senses, is not something that i would commonly depict and i will decline requests of such a nature. However, i hold no ill will to this side of our collective self, as it had taught me of our coveting as well as our weaknesses, which are not to be shunned.

I would consider myself to possess an intermediate skill level,
with my strengths lying in drawing human-animal hybrids and open, natural spaces. I see it as a privilege to learn from those who walked a similar path to me, as well as the masters, so i aim to improve myself to a level per excellence.
