Katmomma: /* all good */ new section

2 articles about the same person (articles "Marilyn Cole" and "Katmomma"). Looked all the art Marilyn/Katmomma has uploaded to main Gallery at Fur Affinity and about half have "MDC" written on them and other half have "Marilyn Cole" written on them. Should Katmomma article be merged into Marilyn Cole article? --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 13:38, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
:Definitely: thanks for spotting the duplication. The content looks to be the same, so I've redirected this article to Katmomma. -- [[User:Sine|Sine]] 13:51, 4 August 2011 (EDT)

Please have the katmomma article redirect to Marilyn Cole...not sure how to do that myself. -Katmomma(Marilyn)
:Done! Thanks for clarifying. -- [[User:Sine|Sine]] 16:16, 4 August 2011 (EDT)

== Removal of Name ==

Hey guys, is there any way to have the redirect to the name "Marilyn Cole" removed altogether and just keep it Sheppymomma and Katmomma? {{unsigned|Katmomma}}
:Done. Hmm, query: I have the article under [[Sheppymomma]],... is this your favorite handle, or do you prefer [[Katmomma]]? (one needs to be the article main name, the other can be a redirect). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 22:59, 19 September 2013 (EDT)

== all good ==

Sheppymomma as the main article name works perfectly. Thank you. :)

Katmomma: removing references to name for lower profile

{{cleanup}}
[[File:ArborvitaeBadge2.png|thumb|200px|"Bunnymomma" Cole's rabbit Fursona]]
'''Sheppymomma''', also known as '''Katmomma''', and '''Momma's Haus''', formerly '''Bunnymomma''' (born 1989), is an American [[Writer|author]], [[illustrator]], and [[fursuiter]].<ref>[http://katmomma.deviantart.com profile] page on [[deviantART]]. Retrieved 2009 October 30.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Sheppymomma served as a Gallery Moderator for the [[anthro]] gallery on [[deviantART]] from October 2008 to June 2010. She is the founder of the [http://anthrocommunity.deviantart.com/ Anthro Community group] on DeviantART.

=== Fursuits/costuming ===

Having a sculpture background, Cole has made 3 [[partial]] [[fursuit]]s.
*[http://katmomma.deviantart.com/art/Longhair-German-Shepherd-259720911 Sheppymomma] - owned and worn by her.
*[http://katmomma.deviantart.com/art/Sheppymomma-v2-GSD-Partial-361554155 Halla] - owned and worn by her.
*[http://katmomma.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4syfhz Logarth Sheppy] - owned and worn by [[Logarth Lollipop|Logarth]].

Sheppymomma also wears [http://lilleahwest.deviantart.com/art/Bernadette-Hare-174837357 Bernadette Hare], who was made by [[Beastcub]].

== Creative skills ==
=== Artwork ===

Sheppymomma had been drawing anthropomorphic characters before she even knew that vast communities of anthropomorphic appreciators and artists existed. When Cole was 16, she learned about the website, [[deviantART]] and began to post her work there. Over the past 6 years, she became involved with other artists who indulged in the same genre. Sheppymomma joined other online art communities that catered to her interest in anthropomorphism. Today, her largest audience comes from deviantART and [[Fur Affinity]].

While Sheppymomma is notably unpredictable with the artwork she makes, the body of her work in illustration is heavily anthropomorphic.
Some of her most iconic anthropomorphic pieces include:
*[http://katmomma.deviantart.com/gallery/948828#/d2a3mrw "The Raggy Foxtrot"] from 2009
*[http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6900960/ "Classy Ladyshepherd"] from 2011

Retrieved 2012 March 2.</ref> She contributed to [[Pawz Calendar]] 2010 with [http://katmomma.deviantart.com/art/Oliver-s-Invention-139425645 ''Oliver's Invention''], and to the [[Rare 2011]] AnthroCalendar with [http://katmomma.deviantart.com/art/The-Epic-173694763 ''The Epic'']. She contributed to the [[Rare 2012]] AnthroCalendar with "[http://katmomma.deviantart.com/art/Spirit-of-the-Southwest-257572715 "Spirit of the Southwest"]

==== Fat Bunnies ====

Sheppymomma co-founded the [[Fat Bunny Agenda]] and began a late summer spoof-holiday for [[Fur Affinity]] spinning around the concept of plump rabbits.
Sheppymomma was featured on the front page of [[Fur Affinity]] for Fat Bunny Week (June 25-31, 2010).
She was featured again with a banner the following year, (August 1-7, 2011) and held a contest for the holiday.

Sweet Nuthins

2012-03-31T22:49:23Z

[[Image:Deskloafing2.png|thumb|200px|"Deskloafing" from May 10, 2011]]
'''Sweet Nuthins''' is a collection of short comics and illustrative doodles reflective of artist, [[Katmomma|Marilyn Cole]]’s personal relationships with close friends and loved ones. The drawings are attentive to the little mundane things in life that can mean a whole lot.
These works are updated to the Sweet Nuthins website and to Cole's deviantART and Furaffinity galleries.

== History ==
=== Bunnymomma and Rourkiebunny ===
Sweet Nuthins originally started as a branch of conceptual emotive illustrations concieved by the artist's personal relationship with leading man, [[Rourkie]], during the 7 month long production of [[The Tortoise and the Hare (2010 book)|"The Tortoise and the Hare: an Adaptation of the Classic Story"]]. The emphasis of Sweet Nuthins was on rabbit characters and noted by many followers for being heartwarming and cute. Katmomma injected herself into the adventures as a rabbit by becoming "Bunnymomma" and created "Rourkiebunny" for Rourkie. The couple and the friends around them take part in little anecdotes related to the fun and difficulties of being gluttonous rabbits. The topics of weight gain, acceptance of one's true self, and idealism are frquently visited in this early part of the series-- themes very prevalent in the published book Cole was working on at the time as well.

After publishing the book, Cole continued to develop the illustrations into short, witty comics and one-liners, which lead to the development of the style of digital media she is most recognized for today. The early days of Sweet Nuthins are also responsible for Cole's "fat bunny" fanbase.

=== LogarthSheppy and Sheppymomma ===
In early March of 2011, Cole announced that Sweet Nuthins would be discontinued due to an emotional separation from the leading man in real life. Illustrations involving the bunnies haulted and many related work was taken down during a clean out of her online galleries. Nearly a month later, Cole posted an installment entitled [http://www.katmomma.com/sweetnuthins/archives/163 "When One Chaper Ends, Another Begins"] and explained her bridging attempt to bring the series back to full speed with a new leading man and a new attitude.

[[Logarth Lollipop|LogarthSheppy]] a German Shepherd dog, is introduced as the new leading man of the series with Cole's installement, [http://www.katmomma.com/sweetnuthins/archives/246 "Morning Nap"], on May 5, 2011. Cole starts out the second season of Sweet Nuthins as "Bunnymomma". After posting [http://www.katmomma.com/sweetnuthins/archives/187 "INFECTED"], Cole injected a bout of hilarious transformation into the series by allowing "Bunnymomma" to become "Sheppymomma", a German Shepherd dog representation of herself at the will of a magic bite. Additionally, Cole allows LogarthSheppy to become Loggybunny when appropriate.

Today, the webcomic continues with heartwarming installments of both LogarthSheppy and Sheppymomma. Unlike the focus on idealism in the series's early days, Sweet Nuthins has shifted to topics of realism and what true love is made of.

Katmomma:

[[Image:Tortoiseandharecover.jpg|thumb|200px|"The Tortoise and the Hare (2010) ]]'''''The Tortoise and the Hare''''' is a 2010 book written and illustrated by Marilyn Cole ([[Katmomma]]) with Daniel O'Rourke and Chelsea Post.
