Could you stop drawing white people? You may not mean to, but you’re encouraging white privilege by representing white people in your art. Try drawing more people of color instead! Unless you have a problem with people of color, of course.
I … I honestly don’t know what to say20% of what I draw is commission (and here is not my choice how to draw them, you know?)
the rest 80% are homestuck kids (and most of it is one pair - DirkJake) and i draw them according to my headcanon (and as I understand the rock is thrown in this direction).
But what I don’t understand is why people still think that if you don’t do something = you hate it or you have problems.
I don’t go on Ask/DM of other people I don’t harassed them and don’t tell them to STOP drawing, shipping, writing, etc. things that just don’t coincide with my preferences. That’s where I think the problems begin.
I said it once and i will say it again: You are always welcome to order a commission or request from me when they are open and I’ll be glad!!! to draw whatever you want with any of yours hc.
I honestly never wanted to hurt anyone, especially with my art (or the lack of something in them). so I want to sweeten this nasty pill with a few sketches
That was a very rude thing for that anon to say! Unfortunately there is a vocal minority of people who do that to artists who gain popularity :/ but I do not think they actually care about the cause that much. I would like to thank you for sharing your art with us! I do not have the money to comission you, but I am very happy to see your wonderful drawings! Please have a nice day!
thanks for the support !!!(╥ω╥)
I know that there are people who seem to enjoy mockery of others and I’ll never understand them. I was just a bit dumbfounded. this ask just felt so…ugh wrong like everything turned upside down
Fanartists are stuck in a no-win scenario. When they draw presumed 'white' headcanons, they are perpetuating white privilege. However, if they draw non-white headcanons, they're attacked for Doing It Wrong and Portraying It Badly and thus perpetuating racial stereotypes. What serial harassers who feel entitled to tell fanartists what to do don't get is they are targeting niche artists because they'd rather attack internet randos than take on the more widespread problem of representation in media
a no-win
scenario is the best description of the situation OTL
oh my god i'm so sorry you had such a shitty anon !! you're free to draw whatever headcanons you want and this trend of people telling artists what to draw to prove they're not bad people is getting ridiculous. that being said, you're one of my favorite artists and i enjoy your art a lot lot ! i hope you have a good day :)
All of you guys are so nice! I hope you will have a good day too !!!
as everyone else is saying, totally ignore that anon! you do you and there are a TON more people that love what you're doing than that lame anon that you shouldn't spend any time thinking about! i love your work and get excited every time you post something for us to see !!
uhh I don’t think so…not until mid-November for sure I still have the last commission and soon Jake English week, in which I want to participate and then my birthday, which I also want to celebrate with family. sooo~ not soon
