Hey! Just a random question, i don't mean to be rude.
Have you ever drawn Any nsfw drawings? I was going through your account and I don't think I came across any! So like do you not draw it cause it's not your style or because you don't want to? Totally fine if you don't want to answer this question or if you're uncomfortable!
hi there!! i have in fact made quite a lot of nsfw drawings! however it's been quite a while since the last one, so it makes sense that you haven't come across it easily... i think the last explicit one was in march of this year. i am currently working on a semi nsfw piece with a collection of jsngs tho! (i posted a wip of it a while back and if you look closely you can perhaps spot what i mean)
there's a few reasons why i've drawn less nsfw this year than the year before. one of them is that my account has grown quite a lot, and being perceived by so many eyes has made me a little more self-conscious when i post explicit stuff. it's somehow kind of scary to post dick and balls when twt shows you the exact amount of views on your posts :"))
this ties in with another reason, which is that my style is usually quite realistic, and i feel like i've been getting better at making the members look like themselves over the past years as well. i know drawing nsfw art of real people in general already crosses boundaries for many, but when i draw very realistic explicit porn based on real people i, too, feel like i might genuinely be crossing the line a bit. ideally i'd like to draw them a bit more stylized when i make explicit nsfw art, so that it feels more like the character art i'm intending it to be, i guess? but stylization is hard for me so it hasn't been happening :') i don't know if i'm explaining this very well... i also feel like i'm a lot stricter with myself than with others because i've barely ever looked at other people's nsfw art and gone "wow this is going way too far". i just overthink my own choices and creations a lot!
finally, i think another big reason is that i simply haven't been feeling very comfortable with making explicit art on a personal level this past year. i've recently had a lot of struggles with intimacy due to some past traumas coming back to haunt me, and while i still enjoy consuming nsfw art and fic, creation and sharing my own creations is a much more vulnerable process for me, and so it hasn't been as easy to do. i have made a few attempts/sketches but those have only been shared with friends so far. still, i don't think i'll never post nsfw art again! i just needed a lil break, mostly.
i hope that answers your question!! don't worry, i wasn't uncomfortable and i appreciate how polite you were :)
