Deal With Itby ~tohdaryl

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / People / Portraits

Day 30 Challenge (finale): Something you’d like to share with your followers or friends.

I'm tired of hiding behind masks. I'm tired of being in fear all the time.

Nobody should be discriminated or judged because of their sexuality. Nobody should be judged at all in the first place. If one should be judged, it would be the deeds of their actions, the work and support they contribute to society and the legacy they leave behind for future generations that could benefit from it.

So judge me as an artist, on my talent, on my profession, and the work I do. Not because of my sexuality.

Thank you, to all my friends, followers, fans, people who love my work and what I do. You are my reason to continue what I’m doing till now. Love you all and please love one another.

you were already inspiring me with your amazing artwork, but to see someone so successful and strong enough to come from behind their mask makes me wanna toss mine off right away. thank you so much for sharing.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay. Your art is still your art, you are still the same artist that I respect and started following years ago. I applaud you for sharing something that must have taken a lot of courage to admit. Don't feel any shame in being gay, Takeru-san.
