Back in the swing of things! by Trustthapo

Hello all! It's been a little under a year since I started using weasyl. I'm starting to get back into making art again and I'm steadily returning to a decent turnover rate of mostly completed art. Even if most of it is porn. Oooops.
Anyway, I guess I'll try to scrape up some old works to throw up on my weasyl and start working on a banner.
I'm starting to practice with anthro characters and, honestly, I've never been keen on anything in art. I'm a jack of all trades type of artist in that I can make something with decent anatomy, perspective, environments, shading, and colors, but it's still pretty awful overall.
I'm open to and highly encourage constructive criticism on all of my work unless I say otherwise. That doesn't mean I'll go back and finish the piece or correct any mistakes present, but I'll try!

A little about me:
I'm a 20 year old biology and psychology student living in the Florida Panhandle.
I enjoy nature (especially herpetology), art, video games, music, driving, sleeping, and learning to cook.
I'm a pansexual and will try to make my page as safe of a place for all LGBT+ individuals as possible!
I have two leopard geckos named Hamlette and Maurice, a ladycat named Sauce, and two boy bettas named Coconut and Cassius. I also have a ladybirb I'm working on keeping with me full time, a white bellied Caique named Monet. Animal husbandry and animal psychology are two big pastimes for me and I was born to be a naturalist.
As for my art background, I have 0 formal training in art and it showssss. I took art classes all throughout high school and decided not to join the AP program. In middle school I wanted to be a storyboard artist or character designer. I now know that I was nuts and have much less of a desire to be awake for days at a time and/or live out of my car. High school burned me out on working on anything and I just gave up for a good threeish years from my senior year of HS to now. I might have come out with something twice a year and I never finished anything. But my inspiration is returning, and here I am!

I'm open to meeting new people and if you ever want to chat I'm available on skype, tumblr, and steam under the same username.
Thanks for dropping by!

    Gosh I'd love to see you here more, hon ♥ Maybe we can work together on stuff and share artses ♥

    IMO, Art doesn't need a formal background. Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I find the best artists work on their own terms, maybe with a smidgen of "formal" training here and there, to pick up some cheats, but otherwise taking what they know and spinning it in their own way. It's what makes art beautiful and unique between each person.

    That said, yes, please grace us with your art. I wanna see you grow ^^

      Heck yeah! Weasyl seems like a cozy place and I've meant to keep up with artists more on here. That being said.. I have 1.5K submissions to go through '>> and I still owe you things, so there's that!
