"because you can, doesn't mean you should"
Siderian/Feline soul | One with the Wild | Biologist (PhD) | Nerd | Otherkin/therian | Metaller | Taurus | Spiritual | Satanic | 5w4 | INTJ-A
I'm a self-taught artist from the Arctic. My artist name FelisGlacialis means 'Ice cat' and my affinity with the cold Northern taiga, mountains and tundra as well as Ice is visible all throughout my art. It's the Dark Wild world where I belong.
I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil. A cat was the first animal I've drawn, my mother told me. Ever since, I've drawn animals, mostly felines and canines but I've also been exploring many other species as part of my identity. My own big feline species, the Siderians and their precursors, have lived with me since I was 11-12 years old, that was back in 1999-2000. They started off as a feline-looking spiky lightning wolf pokémon and gradually became the current Oriental-cat/tiger/lynx like species that they are since 2011.
My many Siderian characters have been of great support though joy and sorrow, life and death. They are my breath of life and I dream away with them, day and night. To get to know me, you will have to know them. Some, like Falkner, have been with me for almost 20 years. Others like Noiro, Shine, Stian and Håkan have changed my life forever. My ultimate dream is to see Siderians alive, be it through a realistic 3D animation, art or through written stories. Hopefully I will finish my novel one day.
I draw both digitally but sometimes traditionally. I also play music (keyboard and my old home-organ) to express myself through playing the music pieces that touch me the deepest. Craft-work and costume making has always attracted me too: I've made sculptures, plushies and a fursuit. I'm now taking steps to take fursuit making to a professional level. However, I will first have to finish my current personal suit to gain more experience.
People who know me personally find me cheerful, funny, curious and positive minded. However, I'm deeply concerned and hurt about the damage that humanity does to other species and the environment and this translates into painful bitterness at times. Maybe that is why some people find me edgy. I'm also into spiritual Satanism (which is not 'evil' reverse christianity and it's NOT related to JoS - it's more like shamanism/paganism) but I worship no-one.
Hi! I'm happy to see that you're still posting art! I do also love your stamps as well! Though I do have to point out something, and I don't mean anything mean by this. I hope I don't come off as that (I'm autistic, not looking for excuses here, either). It's about the "it" stamp. There are some languages that actually don't use separate gendered pronouns, for example, Finnish. That language only uses neutral pronouns. I have a close Finnish friend (she is has autism and ADHD... well, AUDHD. She also loves biology/ zoology even if she doesn't have a job in it) who told me about this and she does have some difficulty understanding how English works (I'm from the states myself). I remember her saying that doesn't understand why "they" is used for a single person and sometimes she will suggest "it" when giving examples of acceptable pronouns for herself. There is also another person we know who is non-binary and also Finnish, they don't mind being called "it" from what I've seen.
A Finnish person (or someone who speaks a language that doesn't have he/she pronouns) who has difficulty with English may use the word "it" regardless of if they're referring to either another human or another animal. Intent does matter here and it is important to be understanding of differences in languages and cultures before making assumptions and thinking one means bad by things. I have learned this over the years of speaking to some people from other countries and learning about other cultures and manners from other cultures. I felt it was important to spread awareness of things like this. Misunderstandings can easily happen from this kind of thing, after all.
🤮👎🤮👎👎
Apparently that person, according to people who have posted on their page, is a petty bully and troll... Possibly rather young as well. Best to block and ignore people who act... dorkish.
The chat feature seems to be broken for me, are your commissions opened at all?
I'm sorry I had missed your message Oo. The comment inbox is a mess too and I keep missing stuff. I might selectively do some commissions but given my low energy state I may decline.
I cannot figure out how to approve submission requests on @Save-DA
I also wander around in other places:
For your information:
I'm NOT Villiedoom and the big cats you see on my page are MY SIDERIANS, not Vill's koties. Whatever platform I'm on, I will always use the name FelisGlacialis. If you wonder about why Vill's koties are so similar to my Siderians: you can read the entire story here.
That includes the clip by Omnia
The order also tells a personal story.
Heritage of the Wolf - by James Horner - goes with this scene
Particularly the part between 1.13- 3.10
This is the most impactful scene of my childhood that set me on the right track to find my inner-self even though it's not a wolf but a feline.
The theme song of my Siderian spirit Stian who opened all the floodgates towards finding my true self. This piece also has a lot of my energy.
Kuolleiden maa - by Moonsorrow
The title means 'the land of the dead' and it refers to a lot of my past.
To me, the song is not only about death, but also about extinction.
Adagio for Strings- by Samuel Barber
See here my version. This sorrowful piece speaks for itself.
The Lion King orchestral suite - by Hans Zimmer
The sound of Felinity
Ruttolehto incl. päivättömän päivän kansa - by Moonsorrow
My all time favourite metal song - particularly the part between 6.30-9.30 has huge personal significance; it's like the sound of my wild soul.
Here is is my own improvised cover of Ruttolehto
Force of Will - by Succession studios
Very much my energy.
Interstellar: No time for caution - by Hans Zimmer.
Dark Energy from the Word Beyond
The Rains of Castamere - Ramin Djawadi, Serj Tankian.
I'm the metaphoric cat in the coat of gold.
