..I consider that one of my better drawings that was NOT referenced (the subject is someone else's OC in an original pose for the character).
Yeah, I had to go all the way back to 2021 to find a quote-unquote 'good' ACEO from the Ferret gallery (but I digress). :p
So, to end my DA/FA/and IB career, I want to upload artwork that's objectively good. I'll never live long enough to produce such myself, so I've been browsing through eBay's offerings.
There's good stuff here (honestly, eBay has a better art gallery than DeviantArt has and, to a lesser extent, than FurAffinity): https://sta.sh/011fdgooy1gv
Yeah ...digressing and repeating myself here, but eBay is a better gallery than DeviantArt---almost no screenshots, no feet photos, no unfiltered porn, just honest-to-God artwork (most of which is wholesome per eBay's AUP ...an AUP most people honor because they want to make money and build a proper reputation again unlike on DeviantArt).
I want to bring some of this outsider art to my watchers, as my parting gift to everyone.
I'm presently looking at this one: https://sta.sh/01mwga514fkd
I've placed a high bid on it---I'm fairly sure I'll win it (but who knows?). ^^
That said, another thought occurred ...why give eBay my money when I have thousands of watchers (of who a fair number are fairly good artists)?
What I am TEMPTED to do (this is only a temptation---I dunno if I'll really act on it) is buy art from some select watchers to feature in my gallery.
This would get expensive quick, but I need only 12 drawings (I'm not buying pencils anymore, so... gotta do something with my spare change). :3
The benefit of commissioning watchers is I'd get art of whatever subjects I want, AND it would benefit the furry community (specifically, my circle within it ...that means YOU, hypothetically).
A seller would need to be willing to make TRADITIONAL ACEO art (preferably of my OCs) and send it to me via snail mail.
To do this, one will need an eBay account to sell the art to me (I will not buy without 'buyer protection', nor should one sell without it).
Just an idea I'm throwing out there (like most of my ideas, it'll probably come to nothing)---I can still buy from random artists on eBay (less likely to cause drama, albeit the art would be impersonal).
Just an idea ...but funny, in its way: the best art you'll see from me, would be made by someone else ...it's so true it's painful!
