Happy Birthday AraKaraath


If it isn't obvious Ara was a big inspiration to me during the formative years of becoming a furry and learning how to draw furry art. I only reached out to him once. It took days of struggling to get up the courage to do so and although I can't recall exactly what was said anymore I do remember him being positive and even more friendly than I had hoped, encouraging me to draw more and draw better. I wanted to try to best capture the feeling I got with that reply :3

The world might've been a bit dimmer when he was taken away, but ultimately he left it better and richer than when he entered it.

Oh man ... I didn't know he passed away too. I remember his works, saw them when i first came to the fandom.

He would have been happy to see this and for being remembered. You did good. May he rest in peace.

I'd like to think he would've been :3

I realized I hadn't seen anything from him in a while and went to check. I had to sit back and catch my breath, I didn't know what to think. I'm really glad I got to message him and even got a few comments/favs on some now deleted pics on FA, those were big for me x3

I should go back some time and collect his old works as a repository.

I have all his FA stuff in a folder 'cause I know with how the rules fluctuate some of them are likely to get wiped.

No kidding. If you have his FA stuff, send them to me some time. I gotta trawl his VCL for his older works too.

Gone, but never forgotten.  It's still a joke among some of my friends how dragons make things go crunch.

Dang. I had no idea. I read his webcomic in the early days. Was a big fan and put many ideas in my head.

ive seen alot of artists just go missing like spotted/forest and then you later find out they died the average age of a furry in the early days like 20 years ago was much lower and now theres more and more middle aged and old furs

Yeah. Honestly I'm getting real fed up with seeing that ∞ pop up on more and more profiles on FA. They're usually not even old, barely middle age at best most of the time.

Ah.... I'm so glad I got into this entire fandom when I did....because I got to see all of these people at their peaks. Then, I got to see their inspirees rise!

The flame will be carried! Illuminating those who need to just a tiny bit more light in the darkness!

I love unique styles, but I also love seeing when someone is obviously inspired by someone else. Warms my heart :3

It breaks my heart to see young, talented, people get taken too soon. This is very sweet of you to do.

I wanted to refresh people's memory of him, he at least deserves that much. I try my best to pass on the same feelings he gave me whenever new artists (and really anybody) get up the courage to message me.

I've been watching you for a looooooong time, well over a decade, maybe two, and I'm not surprised to hear you're that kind hearted. Keep on being you, dude.
