Description What you're about to read may come as a bit of a shock and may make many of you sad, but please for my benefit read on.

Ok first lets chat. I have been thinking for quite some time about a certain wolf by the name of Rainshadow. And it seems that ever since I drew that picture [link] that Rain and me have become even more closer, more united, but...not as a fursona. Rainshadow is everything I love, everything I WANT to be, not what I am, I can't be an angel. The true Rain is not the wolf that appears in doodles, acting all spazzy and stupid and crazy, that's me, that's not Rainshadow. Rainshadow is the shy, loving, loyal, happy, angelic, caring wolf that appears in my book Always With Me. While drawing this picture I went downstairs to make some chocolate milk and that's when it hit me, Rainshadow is my muse, and my spirit guide. She inspries me, she's golden and silver, she's pure, she's where my art and soul comes from.

So yes...Rainshadow is not my fursona, she is a character yes, and nothing will change, AT ALL she's still gonna be all I draw, still gonna be the main charatcer of my stories/rps, still gonna be sketched doing crazy things when I feel like it, and yes, I'm still Rain/Raineh/Rainey, whatever you wanna call me, do NOT freak out guys!! I'm still Rain ok? Nothing's changed.


Ok on another note
Ok so after looking through some galleries of some of ym all tiem favorite artists I got inspired to draw in my long forgotten realistic style, yes I do draw realism, and yes this is my work, my style, it's not copied or stolen or anyhting, it's my art, from my mind. Believe it or not I've been drawing realism wayyyy longer then cartoons. I think Realism expresses me more, like who I really am past the crazy face and antics, like my spirit. So this is just a wolf, I might make more of her I might never draw her again, but I do really like this picture and considering it's been awhile since I've drawn in this style I'm pretty proud of it.

This is a wonderful picture- so simple, and yet so good too. I think the fact its a line drawing helps, it seems to have almost an air of sadness about it, especially with that pose. A moving picture, and an instant fav

Mmm....very deep. My muse is my mate.....I haven't met her yet but I know shes out there, and I know we have a spiritual connection already. She comforts and inspires me to draw. I always draw something interesting when thinking about her.

Wow, the anatomy on this is great!

And I know exactly how you feel about Rain. I have another wolf character named Willow, and she used to be my main fursona. But, like you said, her personality really doesn't quite match my own. So, I made Chroi. n.n

Love this new style!

Realism is often easier than cartoons anyway =d More expresive, really, when you think about it...

You are so amazing though...
This is the same way that Phase is with me, in a way... Are you fursonaless now? Though Rain is, and will always be with you.

In many ways Rainshadow is still me, I mean, she's my soul, my very soul, my spirit guide, and my muse. I made a fursona, basically jsut me in wolf form as people call it, but I wont draw her as much as Rain, Rainshadow is way more important to me then Larka, I like to think as Larka as the top surface of me, and Rain as the deeper surface, if that makes sense.

that is very similar to how I've come to think of my fursona Ikodo actually.....I always thought he represented me, but then I found out that he was actually who I wanted to be

You are very sweet to open up to us. I admire that.
Why would we be sad to find out that you had found the borders in your heart... where you end and your muse begins... why would that sadden us? I am pleased that you have come to a better understanding of yourself. This is good. As it won't cause a loss of our favorite character you draw, then I shall shed no tear.

As to the art - it is a beutiful job! I am impressed! I shall add it to my favorites, for it is so deserving.
*hugs you* and you are definately deserving of being one of my favorite artists! *snuggles*

Aww thank you so much! ^^ <33 and some people love Rain so much and only know her as my fursona, they'd attack me DDDDX so I had to explain and reassure everyone.

I'm not inna shock.. not sad either.. hmm I'm feeling.. funny xD ok that sounds stupid.
no I'm just in a good mood right now and this doesnt change that, why should it,ne?
story = awsome
picture = even better
and well let me tell you about luna.
luna is me I'm luna. she isnt just a character
its me! what luna feels I feel. like when I'm sad so is luna, when I'm all crazy happy and hyper.. yep so is luna! xD; *goes nuts*
my character is named luna becouse my mother allways calls me her lunatic when I'm crazy like today.
so I didnt call myself after some anime character or the moon or spiritual thing or whatever.
I wouldnt mind being called by my real name either. but luna just makes me feel funny and even a bit happy while I'm actualy realy sad. ok I'll stop talking nonsense lol
anyway great drawing! I'll do some realistic art too maybe

Woah..... realism. oo
-ahem-
Ah, interesting. I suppose I agree, but I'm glad you'll be keeping Rain. <3 Will you be making a different fursona then?
I think I did the same thing when I created Angelic Phoenix. She wasn't... me. More just inspiration. But then I switched to the Purple n Gold Phoenix, and I hope to be keeping her for a long time. <3 Thats one reason I won't write much history or story on her. x3 But awesome picture, mate. Hope to see some amazing stuff.

Yes of course I'm keeping Rain!! Nothing's gonna change between Rain and I! In fsact with all honestly I haven't considered her a fursona for quite some time, we feel the same things because she is my spirt guide and my muse, we were one but she's not me, she's better!! DDDDX

Sunriel [2006-10-18 06:31:09 +0000 UTC]

That realy good and I love the thought about that Rain is your muse and your spirit guide. I think all of use have someone or something that is our muse and our guide.... And this are often things that we realy love and which are realy near by your heart. I have a spirit guide too but it isnΒ΄t Sunni... he is called Charly and he is on my side so long as I can think... So I can understand you and I realy love it ^^ Thank you so mutch for this wonderful drawing and this wonderful and amazing words

I really enjoyed reading the description- reminds me a lot of myself. I feel you really put a lot of yourself into your art... I respect that. For me, I -am- Claws, plain and tall, and WulfYoukai is... well, not nearly what I want to be- he's disgusting and weak and cracked out- but he's my guide. He's not my fursona, but he isn't a creation... more like a manifestation.

Whoooa. That's so cool! I've always wanted a gaudian angel type thing!

Wow, you're so much more deep then me!

Realism would be cool! I'm trying to get back into it too. A bit....
