Welcome new followers! I'm a painter from Italy working mostly in oils. I create anthro animals, #furryart, furry solarpunk and ecology inspired stuff. I often paint/draw nudes or NSFW art so 🔞.
An anthropomorphic female wolf in a forest, leaning on a fallen tree and smiling at the viewer. On her side there is an old battered sign that reads "Beware of wolves". An anthropomorphic female lynx angel, with black crow wings and a plate armor. She is descending from a fiery sky upon a landscape of ruins. An anthropomorphic female hippo wrapped in a decorated pareo, surrounded by oxpeckers and butterflies. She looks tough and rugged, as if she has just been in a fight, and she glances confidently at the viewer. An anthropomorphic female winged fox with a colorful fur pattern that reminds the plumage of macaws. She is sitting on a dirty concrete platform and two actual macaws are rubbing against her with affection.

If you see this, post your bird art!

I fell in love with birds after reading "The Wonderful Adventures of Nils" and seeing the "Life of Birds" documentary series by BBC. Anthro birds have been regulars in my art since then!
An anthropomorphic griffon vulture sits in a dusty environment near a construction yard crane. She's wearing a rugged brown cape and a staff with a stylized ibex head sculpture on top, and she wears several necklaces made of scultures of extinct animal species. Attached to each sculture is a ribbon with the species' name. An anthropomorphic female cockatoo stands facing the viewer, with her wings partially spread framing her. She is also spreading with her hands the feathers on her breasts revealing the bare "brood patch" beneath. Frontal portrait of an anthropomorphic long-eared owl with spread wings. She is surrounded by stretched barbed wires, some of which are entwined around her arms. Her arms are crossed on the chest, unable to move, and have multiple scars on them. Some of the wires form a round shape around her head and have dead mice skewered on the barbs, forming a sort of macabre halo. Pencil drawing of a realistic anthropomorphic swallow, standing in an elegant pose with their arms crossed and wings bent in a sheltering pose.

"The wolf springs forward on his dewlap,
Or trips back on his tail.
The duke was humble, and greatly admirable,
Self-composed in his red slippers."

"The wolf springs forward on his dewlap, Or trips back on his tail. The duke was humble, and greatly admirable, Self-composed in his red slippers. The wolf springs forward on his dewlap, Or trips back on his tail. The duke was humble, and greatly admirable; There is no flaw in his virtuous fame." This drawing is based on the Italian translation of a chinese ode, made by @michelecadonna.bsky.social late father, an esteemed sinologyst. A very inspiring commission I enjoyed a lot. Watercolor and ink. Thanks Mike! picture is an ink on brown watercolor of a stylized wolf awkwardly walking on his own tail with red slippers

A few years ago I was compelled to paint two portraits of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna from MLP:FIM. I left them out of my art book due to trademark concerns, but I can share here the two pages I would have put in the book, complete with my notes to the pictures. 1/4
A royal portrait of Princess Celestia from My Little Pony: Friendship is magic. She is painted in a realistic style, standing in front of a stone wall with a sun etching on it. She has a raised hoof and large flowing mane and tail that look like they are made of plasma.

This is probably the largest art I've made in a long time; it's 16x48 inches at 300dpi. All of the animals are inspired by petroglyphs and cave art from around the world on top of the shapes found within the animals themselves. #art #caveart #petroglyph #deer #wolves #ravens #raven #wolf #elk
The artwork is made up of many different petroglyph-inspired animal figures. The animals are all moving to the left. In the foreground you see three wolves and four ravens chasing after two bull elk and one doe in fairly dark lines. In the background are similar style elk that use smaller artwork and lighter lines to represent being further away. All the foreground animals have gold foil circles into their design around their heart's location and airway location. The entire piece has been given a distressed treatment.

Unfortunately this one can't be made into prints for blatant violence (my work usually skirts it; not today), but I can likely get them made elsewhere if there's demand.

Did you know lionesses will sometimes take out their males when the pride is under intense pressure? That's pretty cool. #art
Digital artwork with a square aspect ratio. It features six highly stylized lionesses in a pride circling a slain male lion. The male is shown from top-down view while the females are shown from a side view. The lionesses have mandala patterns in their fur. The dead male lion appears skinny and old. The style is similar to a vintage print on textured paper. The color themes are gold and red. The bottom right contains the artist's signature and the the word "yong-gi" which is a Korean word for courage.

A beautifully haunting painting, and a (short) blog post that's well worth reading about the longing for sacred places and alienation from natural places.

A quote from my art book that seems kinda relevant given the persistent controversies around adult art. Who gets to set the rules of imagination? It's literally the question that spawned the furry fandom.

I'm not sure whether I could post the full version of this painting here, so I'd rather not risk. If you are curious it's not hard to figure out where to find it.

-This is not the sky-

😢It is really sad to see adorable birds dying because of the reflection on windows, so I made this illustration for some bird protection organizations to propagandize this situation.
