There were others, but they suck. This is from yesterday; I got distracted by answering the various questions people posed.


This one started out with the intent of being a self-portrait - yes, with a blindfold on - but it became something else. It's unclear if those legs and that massive abdomen looming behind her are hers, or belong to someone else; if I take this further, it will remain unclear.

I've been doing a lot of fragmentary self-portraits. I'm not really sure what inner urge is driving this. On the other hand, before I got tired of doing the whole 'furry' thing, I drew Peggy a lot, too. Maybe I'm just an egotist who likes to create idealized images of herself.

I have no idea what the significance of wanting to draw myself wearing a blindfold is. It was just an image that popped into my head.

All right, I thought I was the only one!

I tend to like characters that resemble my own. I still have no idea why this is. Why can't I just appreciate diversity and open my tastes a little bit?

Oh, mind if I steal your questions and answers thingy? Not that anyone will reply, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Artists are all self-involved narcissists, I guess... it's also a matter of creating a different version of yourself than the one you show to the world.

Go ahead - I stole it from someone else in the first place.
