>>5857375>most furries are good artistsSure, but let's look at that assumption. Are they? Humans tend to be suckered by many things, but when it comes to art few things captivate people like: 1. animals, 2. the appearance of profundity. Furry art is tricky because it operates by manipulating both of those senses, the human love of looking at animals, and our willingness to be manipulated by "deep" art. I say furry is "deep" because it, like many grotesque or uncanny art styles, elicits a feeling of contradiction, a crisis mentality. It's a beast but it's also undeniably human. Granted we know better now, knowing most furries do it just because it makes them peepeehard, but on the psyche level, I imagine most normies see a beast man and feel that dumb shit we all felt as teenagers when we saw our first wolf dude, "I am human, but I have a beast within". Or something lame and "deep" like that.
Essentially, furry art manipulates both aspects. Our love of animals and our desire to be thought of as deep, or interesting. Not to mention we are all more willing to look beyond the flaws in drawings of animals, but everyone, even a person who doesn't know human facian proportion by heart, will get hung up on a human face that looks off. For this reason, furry art gets away with a lot of shit. Because it is hiding behind multiple layers of suspension of disbelief.
