== On Shamanistic Furries ==

A note on the otherkin comments - on FA I've had a few discussions with other furs, and their opinion was that someone who does have a spiritual connection to their chosen animal (in so much as communing with lynx spirits and whatnot) is not a true furry, even if I view my soul as looking 'lynx-like'. I was referred to otherkin sites, but found minimal response there, as most otherkin believe that those who are touched by a totem animal, but do not view themselves as a were-animal are...just furries. I've met others who are open minded on both sides, but few have a definition that sits well with me.

If people have complaints about my comments, please do not take offense. They are a simplification of a journey that took me many years to begin to understand, and I am still on that path even now. If you would like to know more, please do not hesitate to message me on DA/FA. Just understand that I do not update those galleries at the moment as I am on an art hiatus, and may not respond for a few months.

[[Image:SilverLynxFoxchick.jpg|right|thumb|200px|SilverLynx's Furry style!]]'''SilverLynx''' is a bisexual female [[anthro artist]], [[animator]], [[fantasy artist]] and [[furry]]. Because of her unique beliefs about her fursona some also refer to her as an [[otherkin]] or [[shaman]]. She usually goes by "Lynx" in the furry community.

== History ==

Lynx, like most furries, discovered her nature at a young age, along with her drawing ability. Drawing herself as various types of cat creatures became more refined over time to settle on the lynx totem, and she may draw herself as anything from a were-lynx to a nearly human character with stripes on her face and lynx ears. She became involved in the furry community as early as 1996, taking the name SilverLynx when told that Lynx was too plain. Throughout the years, her participation in the fandom has been minimized to art and internet communities only. She has taken many breaks from the fandom, rarely explaining why. She usually returns every few years with new art.

== Furry Status ==

Lynx has mentioned that her [[fursona]] is something totemic and spiritual to her. While she does have a fursona that is animalistic as most furries do, she generally calls her fursona her soul. She has on occasion referred to her [[totem animal]] as a lynx, or stated that she has been touched or visited by a spirit of a lynx. She has been referred to as otherkin for this reason, but she prefers the self-coined term 'shamanistic furry'.

== Style ==

Lynx's art ranges all over the place, but usually rests in a vaguely [[BTAS]]/[[Gargoyles]]/[[Disney]] style. She does do some anime-influenced art, but generally only while on commission. She works digitally for most of her work, but also does paint in oils, acrylic, gouache and watercolors from time to time. Her painted work is similar in scope to her drawn work, but often has a stronger 'realistic' style.

== Name Confusion ==

Lynx has occasionally run into some confusion, as there is a male [[anthro artist]] who also goes by the name of SilverLynx. On websites where she has already taken the title, he goes by SylverLynx; on sites where he has it, she goes by SliverLynx.

Lynx has also gone by the nickname SliverMcKite - some of her work from 2004-05 is attributed to this name.

SilverLynx: thanks

Hi SilverLynx, and welcome to WikiFur! Thanks for telling us a bit about yourself - [[User talk:GreenReaper|let me know]] if you need any [[help]] not already provided. :-) --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]<sup>([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]])</sup> 20:06, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, especially for making the link go from my user page to my artist page. I was going to do that, but completely forgot to while researching how to put in pictures. Still working on the pictures, because I'll actually have to upload them too. [[User:SilverLynx|SilverLynx]] 00:30, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
