Is Art going to be in your future as a career: Yes! My ultimate goal is to teach at a college level. Before I get there though, I hope to freelance illustrate and maybe storyboard animations.
What's your favorite medium: Oil Paints. Nuff Said.
Where do you get your inspiration: Tough to say. I look to nature alot. I find pictures and colors I like in magazines and keep them. I also collect old books and random knick-knacks. Birds are my muse though. I could paint or draw birds forever.

Your Artist Name (what you sign your pics with): Jigsaw Forte (although out of principle I don't sign my works... I'm a big fan of the "You know it when you see it" principle. I imagine that'll change whenever I find my art getting ripped off.)
How long have you been drawing: Constantly? Only a few years, but I've been drawing as far back as I can remember.
Have you taken any art classes: Up until High School, yes.

Have you ever been paid to draw: Quite a bit, in fact. Unfortunately they're pretty few and far between.
Is there anything you see yourself never drawing: I make it a point not to draw porn. There's enough furry porn artists out there. (Besides, my Dad knows I draw this stuff.)
Have you ever drawn from life: When I was taking actual classes, yes. Not so much now unless I need a specific reference.
Do you take requests often: No. I tend to put a little too much effort in to just "give away" stuff.
Anything else you want to say about your art: ... which is part of the reason I don't do a whole lot else besides the comic. Even stuff like the wallpapers and other peripherals just sorta feels like a waste compared to that...

Anything else you want to say about your art: Umm... no, not really... I suppose I could say the obvious thing about not being very confident with it... and I never seem to be able to draw the same thing twice (character-wise) which makes it hard to start a comic... but I'm working on that!

Your Name:
Tony Caline (No real name for now!)
Your Artist Name:
Tony, but Tony Caline is still relevant here.
How long have you been drawing:
Since I was but a little kid that enjoyed copying ideas and art styles from old Garfield books. But, if you mean seriously, I'd say roughly around October 2004.
Have you taken any art classes:
Nope! Well, okay, I tried -one- that didn't go over so well.
If yes, what kind:
It was a class that I expected to be helpful in learning perspective and colour, and it ended up starting out trying to make be be an abstract artist in mediums I had never even conceived, so I had to drop it.
What is your favorite thing to draw:
Well, uh... feet, probably. They're fun to draw. But if there was a second best, I'd say crazy poses.
What is your LEAST favorite thing to draw:
HA HAAA, hands. But, I also don't particularly enjoy the idea of drawing anything above the PG-13 level, so I guess that actually counts.
Do you draw traditional (pencil, paint, etc) or Digital:
I utilize both! I normally sketch traditionally first, and then scan the sucker in at 600dpi for maximum inkage and colour. But sometimes I traditional-ink, too, though traditional colour is lost on me. (And even, some days I feel, digital colour is, too.)
Do you color your drawings:
Whenever I am able to, or feel up to it, yes,
Is Art going to be in your future as a career:
I could potentially hope so, but my parents (father, specifically) don't really seem to think it would work out.
What's your favorite medium:
Uh... I'll take a shot in the dark at answering this, and say 'Paint Tool SAI'!
Where do you get your inspiration:
My friends, the furry fandom at large, and zany adventures that I undergo over here in this quaint little Texas town.
Have you ever been paid to draw:
I have, I still am, and I am still accepting future applications for commissions!
Is there anything you see yourself never drawing:
Smut, mostly. But, aside from that, anything bearing abstract style, or realism. I can't handle that stuff.
Have you ever drawn from life:
See above. But, for the sake of an answer, no.
Do you take requests often:
I take maybe one or two - most of the time I'm too caught up in other projects to really accept anything, and/or remember to get to it.
Anything else you want to say about your art:
I have locations around DeviantART and FurAffinity, but if you are interested in seeing the galleries, I'll probably have links in my signature or something later.
