Anyone familiar with my work for the last... ever... may have noticed a sudden expansion in content. Specifically, suddenly nudity and sex exist in my gallery.

Why?

Sex is a part of life. I am an adult depicting adult characters, some of whom even have children. Those parental characters did not asexually reproduce.

I spent a long time trying to keep sex out of my work, though. I feared what would happen if certain people (i.e. current employers, future employers, particular family members) saw me make such content.

Society makes sex a taboo topic, and I (generally) guard my privacy. The smut I depict reflects my preferences. Viewers will learn more about me than I might feel comfortable them knowing... thanks to society's lessons of shame.

However, I spent the last 10 years exploring sex positivity in real life. I have decided to start exploring it in fictional life, too.

And fictional life is so much freer. Concerns like pregnancy, S.T.I.s, hygiene, jealousy, trustworthiness, gravity, and physics are optional -- inherently absent -- in fiction.

Sex is a part of life, though. I still have plenty of non-sex content planned, too. I try to respect ratings and employ warning labels. So, if you want to see more by me, but not the smut, then just keep that S.F.W. mode on.

TL;DR

This conversation with DaemionFox about this naked Zeal image sums my sudden shift well:

HIM:

look at you, getting all daring

ME:

I'm 43 years old; I'm tired of self-censoring. :-P Welcome to my mid-life crisis. Apparently, it features nekkid cartoon animals.

HIM:
