About me

I'm tusk, also known as tuskito, a slightly more unique name which came about to make me easier to find on social media.

I'm a gay furry artist from Brazil who's very influenced by comics as a medium. I work digitally, primarily on the free software Krita. My main stylistic influences include comic artists Hugo Pratt, Giorgio Cavazzano and Hirohiko Araki and painters such as Cybèle Varela. I try to explore the effects created by the coexistence of lines of different thicknesses and different crosshatching styles. For colored pieces, I often attempt to draw the color, looking for a style that is not ashamed of being digital while also keeping the power of the line evident. Some of my earlier works were traditional, using pencils and inks.

Due to my comic influences, I often use panels in my compositions to allow a single canvas space to include a multitude of perspectives and moments to the pieces I make, serving to add dimensions to the picture while also establishing a dialogue with the rich traditions of an artistic medium that is often overlooked and severely understudied. The use of panels also allows for the juxtaposition of representational and graphical elements, another one of comic's strenghts which can often be encountered in the works of its greatest artists, such as Chantal Montellier.

Science is also brought along as a tool with which to build these scenes: elements such as chemical formulas and mathematical operators from quantum field theory are taken from their original contexts to achieve new meanings related to sexuality and kink.

Anthropomorphism

Being a "gay furry" artist, to me, deals with exploring the relationship between these two points: anthropomorphism and homosexuality, both of which are not only present in art history all over the world but also very important to me on a personal level as the first was often the only vector through which I could safely explore the second.

Furries are animals, and as such they are allowed to be hairy, messy, stinky, horny while being free of the weight of sin which should only befall humans and their immortal souls. However, Biology defies the Biblical narrative by revealing that humans are also animals, and as such all those possibilites become available to us. The furry figure allows us to explore sexuality and life and to properly realize the potency of the material body as opposed to the unbearable weight of a soul suffocated by religious dogma that fails to respect the human need to authentically explore the self and the world around it.

As a result, to me, furries are the potency of materiality and a celebration of the freedom to explore the body and its sensations.

Oh, also I
