From Kai: ๐ฌ
"I am Kai, a 23 year old artist and Fursuit maker from Vienna.
I found my way into the community at age 12-13 through Fursuiting YouTube videos, especially being motivated to join the fandom when I saw Telephone the dutch angel dragon perform at conventions for the first time!
I was pretty young and found the Fursuit as well as the overall performance and creativity incredible. I have kind of ghosted around since, even attempted my first Fursuit when I was 13 (It did not turn out well and was fully scrapped haha)
I then proceeded to get more involved at age 20 and went to a a bunch of Furmeets in the area, getting to know some incredible people along the way!
My art journey already started in kindergarten. It started off with a bunch of warrior cats artworks especially, inspired by all the AMVs and PMVs back in the day. From then I went kind of to the human side of things sometime in my teenage years, although that didn't last long. Furries ended up kind of being my absolute favorite subject of art in the end. I have gotten into furry art especially starting age 16, and have been continuing since. All of my skills I honed alone, as a hobby. I watched as many Speedpaints as I could, practiced and stuck to it.
Then at age 21/22 I made my first Fursuit, Scampi! And I have since made more fursuits! Enjoying the process and the learning curve of Fursuitmaking made me branch off into a whole new interest and I am really excited to see where it takes me!"
We canโt wait to meet Kai at Awoostria and showcase his raw talent!
