AREXU

FAQ
Can I repost your art?
No, you may not UNLESS its for e621 or such sites. But this is the internet, once its out there, many would share it even without my knowledge. I would hope people would be respectful and respect my wishes, but as long as:
They credit me in their post
Have not tampered with my signature and watermark, cropped it out of the image, or covered it
Do not claim the art as theirs
I let people off the hook. Otherwise, I will file a copyright strike and get in touch with legal resources.

direct CONTACT
There are times people need to reach out to me, be it out of an emergency or have a question. But I need to set some boundaries here:
No RP requests -- this will get you instantly blocked!
No small talk. Despite the possible good intentions, I like to get to the point if you aren't a mutual already.
" Everyone loves a compliment, but nobody wants to feel stalked or hounded. Once you’ve taken some steps to get on the radar of the person you admire, you could send them a friendly note telling them a little bit about yourself and your work (think: one or two sentences, definitely don’t send them your whole CV). Just be honest about the fact that you’re looking to learn more about the field they’re in, and that you’d be thrilled to talk to them sometime. "
Once you reflected on your intentions and confirmed with yourself that it doesn't break the two rules above, you can go ahead and send a message!
Social sites
These ALL the places where you can find me on! Be sure to follow me on the sites you usually frequent in case one plataform falls (coughcoughTwittercoughcough)If you hover above some of the links with your mouse / hold press a button, if they glow RED, they are places I don’t frequent as much, but they exist to prevent impersonation.
HQ Prints
I usually sell prints of my work at conventions, but I can also ship them out if I have any spares!The inventory of what I have varies, but the process of obtaining it goes like this:
Reach out to me via a DM on BlueSky
Arexu.Art, Twitter, Telegram or anywhere really. My username is the same on most sites:ArexuAlexAfter telling me what print you'd like, I'll ask you to email me your details.
I pack your stuff and usually send them out by the end of the week or sooner, depending on the workload.
