This is the new year! 2017! And here I am, finally getting underway to doing something that I probably should have done long, long ago.
I run about in the furry fandom as Karja. Or Karjalankarhukoira. No, the name wasn't created by slamming my head into the keyboard-I'm also a massive dog nerd and the full name is Finnish for the Karelian Bear Dog......even though, yes, my fursona is usually a camel. Usually being a key word, because shape shifting does happen. But enough of that!
I've always been involved with art for as long as I can remember, and I've been in the fandom for some time now. I'm solely a traditional artist at this point, which seems to be a rarity in the fandom. And even though I'm artistically moving more towards realism and realistic animals (still going to do personal anthropomorphic work) as far as trying to make it as an artist, I still feel I have many, many things I can share with the fandom in terms of knowledge.
From everything regarding supplies and techniques to how the real world artists do things and how we can learn from it, to debunking myths and countering some of the incorrect views present in the fandom, and much more!
