I had added a mature art section for those that wanted to commission that kind of art but I had to remove it right away because the mature tags that should have blocked underage viewers failed in a horrific way. Luckily I censored all my art myself but still, the suggestive poses are not for minors to see. So thanks DeviantArt for fucking that up. I'm going to have to figure out some other way to deal with those that want to commission that kind of art.

Good luck with that. Deviantart hasn't been a good place for mature artwork in years, and I have yet to see a truly "general purpose adult art" gallery website spring up. The closest is Pixiv, but it has distinctly japanese rules and can feature subject matter some people would be uncomfortable hosting their own artwork in proximity. The trend I'm seeing is Twitter, Telegram, and Discord, none of which are good gallery platforms but do work well as publishing services. If adult artwork wasn't so grossly stigmatized in western cultures, we'd probably have better options at this point.

I suppose I shouldn't say "we" since I haven't drawn anything mature since early 2014 or so. But you know what I mean.
