About the Artist

My name is Felix and I'm a queer character artist from Naarm whose identity and love of colour heavily influences my work.I'm disabled and an active artist in the Australian furry community both locally and interstate. I love the fact that funny animal guys can bring together so many different people from such varied backgrounds.My goal with my art is to bring colour and cuteness to the world. As a disabled person living in a pandemic, it's hard to feel like I can do much about the state of the world as it is today. But if I can make someone's day a little brighter, or bring someone a little bit of joy, I'll feel like I've done something worthwhile with my time.

Twitch

I'm a part-time streamer on Twitch. I stream as a PNGtuber of my fursona Felix. He's a catboy who's registered himself as CEO of a corporation to dodge taxes, and has found an abandoned building to work from. But his "work" days are spent eating tuna, napping, and streaming himself drawing on Twitch.

Artemis

Artemis is my pet cat who I love dearly. He is a senior cat who has some chronic health conditions. He was previously a stray, so he's very set on eating everything he can get his paws on, and he struggles with social cues. A cat after my own heart, truly. He often makes appearances on my social media and streams, because he is a huge part of my life.

Activism & Charity Work

I'm a big advocate for animal welfare and have run and participated in multiple fundraising drives/charity auctions for local charities that focus on animal welfare, including the Australian Dingo Foundation, and WIRES.I am also currently running a charity fundraiser for Khalsa Aid, to help provide aid to vulnerable communities affected by the COVID-19 crisis in India.

Charity commission for Branson and Remy, of their fursonas and Remy's pet chicken. They asked for something cute and cuddly with a bit of Australiana vibes. This commission was approximately 5 hours of work, and we raised $380.

The Artist behind HoneyNuggs

My name is Felix and I'm a queer illustrator from Naarm/Melbourne whose identity heavily influences my work.I am disabled with multiple medical conditions including Fibromyalgia, hEDS and mental illness, but I'm lucky enough to make a modest living off of my artwork.My work features a lot of cats, bright colours, and queer themes. I am also quite fond of anime and video games and this influences my work as well.

Mutual aid and giving back to my community are important issues to me. I have both run and participated in various charity fundraising drives for local organisations including the Australian Dingo Foundation and WIRES and international organisations including Khalsa Aid.
