Profile

I'm Devon and I am a digital furry artist from the United States. I'm a gender something that likes they/them or he/him pronouns, it's up to you! I'm the queen of foxes and lingerie.

I'm a little shy but I warm up easily. I see myself as confident and forward. I adore making friends and meeting new people, and I feel like people will get to know me best through my art and time spent on this website!

I'm recently beginning to practice art more so the next few days/weeks/months/however long it takes will mostly be filled with gift art/requests/trades/practices and WIPS in general due to practicing new poses, species, breeds, styles of drawing, and the like. I want to become a very good artist one day, and hope to take commissions at some point- but I want to get better before I do.

So, I am open to requests and trades as I want to build a little bit of a name for myself first. I want to show people I care about my customers and get my art done, but for now all I offer is sketches and maybe unrefined line art. I just want to practice right now, I want to draw a lot of different things and I want to get through it quickly in order to learn as much as possible.

I'm not saying I'm going to rush my work, and I'm not saying learning how to draw well does not take patience and time, I'm well aware it does, I'm so aware of this. But I want to establish how I sketch and draw different poses first, as the sketch is the most important part of my art for me- lining is easy, that isn't too big of a deal for me and I will work on that later, but for now I want to work on poses and expressions and the like.

I may try to pump out a sketch a day, if possible? Maybe starting this week, maybe next week- I'm completely unsure! But I will do everything in my artistic power to become a better artist. I know I have a long way to go to make a name for myself and I'm willing to invest a good amount of my time in this. I'm currently looking for a job so I'm having less time on my hands, and when I get a job I'll have even less time, but I still want art to be the first thing I prioritize- but that isn't to say work won't be important when I do manage to find it! Of course it's important- very important- and it will be something that helps me when it comes to receiving commissions and achieving a business-based state of mind, I believe.

I am very art focused on the minute and very job focused. I'm a little scatter brained due to it but I will sort something out eventually. I promise myself and others that I will better my art and hopefully make a little bit of extra income on it someday, hopefully soon. Extra money would be so good right now, but I want that to wait until I have a better grip on art and can deliver art at a very good standard for those receiving the art.

My To-Do list as a result is:

Improve My Art - I want to improve how I draw in the entirety; how I sketch, how I map out body parts, how I draw body parts, how I colour, how I shade, how I draw figures; I really want to better myself at this. I want to be able to give to the community in an outstanding manner. I want to be able to have a style that says "That's Devon's art!" and I want people to be happy when they see my art. I don't want to be drawing vent art all the time, and I don't want to just be drawing my characters. I want to slap my style on many peoples' characters, show people how I draw. Show people that I am an artist and I WILL improve for myself AND the community.
Get A Job - I need a job in order to get into the business mindset and get enough money in that I can a better tablet and/or art program, and get enough money to move out of my current housing situation. I'm most keen on finding a job in retail or something similar. Retail has a big appeal to me, and while it sound weird- stacking shelves feels like it'd be the best thing for me. It's a simple task that I'd love to do and it would appeal to a major aspect of my OCD, I feel.
Make People Happy - Through my art I just want to make people happy- be this through completing requests, trades, commissions, and most importantly, giving gifts. I just want people to be happy when they receive things from me, I want to put a big grin on peoples' faces. That's all I want to do- make people happy, make them smile... That's all. I want to do this mainly through art- but even if just supporting them with their own art makes them happy; telling them how they draw something looks good, giving them friendly critique to help them improve, whatever makes them happy!

I haven't set too unrealistic goals for myself and as a result I am willing to work on them as hard as I can. I'm not trying to overwhelm myself by giving myself thousands of impossible little goals; hence I included 'supporting other artists in their own efforts' and 'delivering peoples' art' in the 'make people happy' section, because they fall under similar circumstances. I guess improving my art and making people happy are similar sections and could be grouped together, but spreading them out a very tiny little bit just makes it easier on me.

So, sorry if you get spammed to crud with a bunch of sketches from me! I'm trying to better myself and make people happy! I'm excited to get started on this and I imagine other people are excited for my own personal journey, too- I'm especially excited to help other artists improve and to give art to people and present them with good art that can satisfy their needs.

But yeah, if you read this, thanks so much. It means a lot to know people find my babble interesting, I guess! Even though it is just pointless note-to-selves if anything!
