Hello!!
My name is Dave, a left-handed spanish artist living in Germany. I love videogames, pizza, sciences, art, and my girlfriend over all of them.
I am a very skeptic person, I don't believe in pseudo-sciences, conspirations, religions... in fact I feel very proud to be atheist, I firmly think that I don't need to believe in a God to be a good person.
About art, I've practised almost every kind of graphic art, including old techniques like lead pencils, self-made egg temperas or engraving printing; and modern art like painting graffitis and tattooing. I think the only technique I've never tried is airbrush painting!
And I don't know what else to say about myself...

Now, about anthro art... my relationship with it has been weird. Since I was a child I always liked to draw animals more than humans, and when I was 18 or so I started posting my drawings on DeviantART. At some point I started drawing animals with human shapes (it was easier for me than drawing humans), and then I discovered the "furry fandom", people who liked to draw the same as me. I was so surprised that there was such a big community dedicated to it, it felt like discovering a whole new world! I was very happy about it, and I met some cool friends in it.
In this anthropomorphic art community I read about FurAffinity, and I decided to give it a try. I didn't last very long, the extremely high quantity of pornographic pictures made me run away disgusted, and with a terribly bad opinion about the furry fandom. I stopped drawing anthro art so I wouldn't be related to the fandom. Yes, I felt ashamed of drawing what I liked to draw.
Years later I started studying psychology, and during Anthropology and Sociology classes I kinda found out that according to the cultural relativity, the furry fandom isn't doing anything wrong. It just follows different cultural patterns, welcoming explicit sex, bizarre fetishes, allowing everybody to express their most inner ideas and desires with no boundaries. I still feel uncomfortable with the "adult art" here, but now instead of leaving, I just changed my account settings to hide such pictures. Now I understand that the furry fandom and me belong to different cultures, and I will respect that! I just hope you respect my culture as well ;)

Well, well... in the end, opening commissions has been the last failure. I didn't collect in time enough money to pay next month's rent, so in the end of January I will have to leave this country back to my parent's home.
For this reason, I will not be productive in an artistic way. I want to spend these last days with my girlfriend, so I won't have time to draw new stuff until February.
So see you all next month! :)
