About the art
Here’s an archive of some of my old original art from the past. Several things will be apparent if you look through it:
- I’m a complete amateur with no formal training
- I can’t draw all that accurately and I don’t really give a rat’s ass about anatomical correctness etc.
- I have an unusual mind.
Most of these old pics are a lot odder than my fanart which has to date been fairly straightforward and figurative. My natural bent tends towards the slightly surreal, though, so I think I’ll veer in that direction again, at some point.
If you use or reproduce any of my pictures, please credit them to: Fizz (aka
mific of livejournal and dreamwidth)I haven't rated the individual works, as most are G. But one or two would qualify as PG-13 or R for nudity or bizarreness
