Hi 4chan, I'm a 28 year old male, who like drawing art and comissiong art, some of which features fetish work that i'm into, such as people turning into anthros or gaining additional body parts, but I'm no longer comfortable with the art I've comissioned, i think i may have gotten a bit too weird with it at times, so I want to tone it down a little, and focus on art that everyone can enjoy, only problem is that i'm now constantly thinking about how weird i am for comissiong such stuff in the first place, and family or possible future employers finding out about it. Maybe I'm worried about nothing. I'd like to post more of my own art online, but these thoughts are kind of holding me back a little. since I'm constantly worried people will find those comissions through my screen name on google or something. Sorry if this is wrong place to talk about this, I dont know anyone else to talk too.
As an artist, especially in something as openminded as the fetish industry, it's usually interesting to be grand, weird and out of the box. As an artist, you'll be respected, if not tolerated for it. Just make sure it's nothing that would even be frowned upon in your niche. I can imagine paedophilia is several notches too far.
Can't you just use a pseudonym?

Its not child porn, so no worries there. But I feel more comfortable with myself focusing on more normal art from now on.

I did, but the problem was I was using the same pseudonym for my regular art, which was a stupid thing to do, thats why I'm worried about future employers finding out about it. Since I want to eventually get into the art industry. But If I make a new account name, and focus on normal art, maybe things will work out, how likely are people to search your screen names?

I think it is safe to draw under a different / artist name. You do not want to google your own name and find bdsm or other fetish art.
Be open minded about it, if someone digs deep enough it is okay to find out such a thing, as it is rather an interest and it is still art. People are drawn naked for centuries as it symbolizes nature, so does sexuality and i guess it can not directly be considered porn at all times.

Oh and in that >>17438378 case, just go on drawing with the same screen name, eventually it will only pose a small percentage and it's difference in style will most likely look like you are flexible in what you can do.

Thats why I plan to use two differant screen names for the future. To prevent such things from happening. I didnt use my real name as a screen name, so hopefully it wont be that easy to find. nothing illegal, but turning into anthros, and gaining bodyparts and genitals is outside the norm of normal art

If you have the possibility and want to make sure, why don't you just change the description, i assume on deviantart, to: "This has been drawn as a series of personal user requests to aim for the display of rather unnatural body modifications that are being sexualized."
That would atleast give the impression that you are not that fucked up and just aim for a challenge?

Oh this isn't art I drew for people, I asked people to draw this stuff for me, but I no longer feel comfortable with myself for buying such stuff from other people.
