Alright, I have to ask something from everyone after someone brought this to my attention yesterday...
Do you all see my pictures as...like se.xualized? Q ^ Q
Because holy fudge muffins I never want them to be seen that way and apparently a lot of people do??? And that actually really bothers me q - q
The Colors! Gallery moderators will look at it as soon as possible.

Amazing work, I love all the detail that you alway put in your pic's. And your question? I myself do not see them in that aspect. I think they are not s.e.xual in any way. So, I don't know who sees them like that. But if they do, I think something's wrong with them. XD

@ FireTheFox

@Malifia

@DecapitationCarnival
I don't really understand it myself...:/ I mean there is no intention behind any of my pictures to be sexualized so why would they even see it that way? The issue too is that they are older so you'd think they'd be able to understand the difference. They even went as far as to say that sexuality is show through art and consequently, that means that (because my art is "se.xual") I'm the same way when I'm not??? I'm not attracted to anyone romantically or otherwise so I just don't get it?? Thanks so gosh darn much for your input, though Q v Q I'm really thankful for it.

@KleoKatra96
Yeah, you have to be right Q v Q I just can't wrap my head around how they could think that :/ Ug, I probably shouldn't let all of this bother me as much as it does but the whole thing has just rubbed me the wrong way q - q' Thanks for helping out, though! I definitely appreciate it <3

Yeey IA! :D and why in the world would someone think that your art is se.xual?? It's totally not! I think your art is elegant, beautiful and pretty <3

I don't think your art is sexualized at all! You don't put the people you draw in sexual situations or positions, they just happen to show some skin.

@Jiah
Aw well thanks q v q I'm really glad you feel that way! You know, 'doing it' really helped actually haha x'3 Thank you for being my friend as well <3
Ahhhh now please don't hate me for this buuut you really shouldn't call people who have to get their GEDs (Hi-Set nowadays) stupid because you'd be surprised how many are really smart but have to get it for other reasons q v q'' getting your GED doesn't equate to stupidity D:

@Koooooky
I have no idea to be perfectly honest q v q but thanks so much for your words <3 !! I'm really glad you feel that way!

@Whether1feather
Showing some skin shouldn't even be considered sexual if in moderation >:V Argh, well thanks so much for sharing how you felt on the matter. I really, reaaaally appreciate it o D o

I just checked your whole gallery... And I must say...
*Faceeverything*
Sexualized? No, no-no no, MY characters #Haanah and #Lavahn are sexualized; YOUR stuff is just pretty. It's odd, "If a woman is drawn as such and isn't ugly, she's sexualized" seems to be many people's mindset. I don't know why. You're worrying yourself over nothing. Do what you do. Ignore these people, they've no idea what they're talking about.
And I think @Jiah was saying that to mean these sorts of people are less intelligent, and thus should go get a GED so they would -become- intelligent. Not giving having a GED as an example of stupidity, but rather, the opposite.

No, your pictures don't seem to have any se.xual connotations or innuendos to me.

@Tempo613
I tend to fret over the little stuff- and this is obviously no exception. If this was just a random person who said this to me; however, I probably would have just ignored it. Although, I got this opinion from someone who I respected (and a few others joined in agreement)- which was why this whole thing bothered me as much as it did. Nevertheless, I really appreciate your input!
Also one of my many flaws- jumping to assumptions... (big apology to Jiah if what you are saying is the case). There is just a huge stigma around GEDs and those who get it being 'stupid.' I'd rather not to go into to depth about it for personal reasons but there are far too many with that kind of mindset- and again, it is me at fault for jumping to conclusions and not really getting what they were meaning at first. So, thank you for clearing that up whether or not that was how they meant it. <3
