'''Brent M. Parker''', also known as '''Animagusurreal''', is a [[furry artist]] based on the [[Wikipedia:Central_Coast_of_California|Central Coast of California]] that is known for his psychedelic and - as his name suggests - surreal techniques. His subjects are usually [[tiger]]s and other big cats, [[fantasy]] creatures like [[gryphons]] and [[unicorns]], and artwork featuring a superhero known as Remi Vitoux.

== Remi ==

Remi Vitoux is a [[beaver]] furry created by Animagusurreal, he lives in [[Wikipedia:New Orleans|New Orleans]] and is sensitive and rebellious artist who specializes in wood sculpture (being a beaver of course). Little does everyone know though, Remi is also the superhero "Dammage" who uses his wood-sculpting and dam-building powers to fight the forces of evil... a strange and surreal superhero fitted for a strange and surreal line of artwork. There are several other characters who appear in pictures alongside Remi, most prominently Iris Deck, a.k.a. Identity, the superheroine bloodhound.

== Camo ==

Another occurring theme is a series of feral tigers done for a graphic novel ''Camo''. The tigers are from [[Wikipedia:India|India]] but possess magic powers and can transport to a number of places around the world.

'''''Camo: a magical tiger odyssey''''' is a graphic novel-in-progress currently being created by Brent M. Parker, a.k.a. [[Animagusurreal]]. Anthropomorphisization is about on the level of [[The Lion King]] - the characters are sentient, but are quadrupeds, live in the wild, and do not wear clothes or use technology. Early pages are available for viewing on his website.

Camo is a middle-aged tiger living on an island in a river in the Indian jungle with his three nearly-grown cubs, whom - contrary to general male tiger behavior - he has raised. He constantly wards off invasions of his territory by rival tigers - including his ambitious young Neighbor - with nothing more than his calm, confident presence.

Camo's only son, Young Camo ("Y.C.") is a rare white tiger, which makes it more difficult for him to blend into his surroundings. Camo insists that the happy-go-lucky Y.C. toughen up in order to compensate for this disadvantage, and the discussion escalates into an argument, and then a fight.

As Camo is about to pounce on Y.C., the younger tiger reflexively uses his hitherto-undiscovered magical powers to send his father to Siberia.

Y.C. embarks upon a quest to find his father, master his powers...and perhaps discover his own territory on the way.

Meanwhile, Camo must learn how to survive in someone else's territory.

== Escapia ==

This series of artwork features characters from Animagusurreal's fantasy prose-novel-in-progress, '''''Escapia''''', which takes place in a Rennaisance-era kingdom where magic is becoming industrialized and humans and magical creatures must learn to live alongside each other. The main character is Sequiel, a human quest guide, but much of the artwork in the series features Ballad Quill, a cheerful [[gryphon]] musician.

== Muscle Furry ==

In 2009, Animagusurreal began drawing artwork in the muscle furry subgenre, in a relatively realistic style. A series of pictures in this style centers around a battle between a [[doberman]] superhero named Dobes "Guard Dog" Gillis, who has a super-bite, and a [[skunk]] villainess named Zoria Qumica, who has chemical-based powers via her spray. Zoria's vampire [[bat]] accomplice, Johnny Drac, has also been introduced, with more characters planned for the near future. The artist also continues doing images in his "regular" surreal style.
