Canvas is a yearly Fediverse event similar to Reddit’s Place - it’s a collaborative art project where any Fediverse user can place colored pixels on a shared canvas over a period of a few days. It has a dedicated community at !canvas@toast.ooo - the canvas itself is here.

This will be its third year; the first time, there were some minor furry drawings, and last year, we were a bit more organized, with a bit of collaboration between Pawb and Yiffit. The full canvas from last year can be seen here - we had a small spot carved out in the lower left corner, as well as a few scattered things all around.

I’d be great to actually start organized this year, and create something substantial together.

Anyone else interested in participating? Any thoughts on what we might make? Anyone with artistic skill want to sketch something out? If we can get a few ideas, maybe we vote on them prior to the event itself?

          Obviously far too early to start planning something, but I think we should go with a collage of instantly recognizable furry gateway characters - Disney’s Robin Hood, Gadget Hackwrench, Nick Wilde / Judy Hopps, Lucario, Renamon, etc. - and prep the image a month or so in advance, then start posting it around a few furry subs to publicize it. If we can get any traction on the design ahead of time, it’d be easier to get people on board with making it.

            I get your idea with the classics but I also liked the vibe of this years project with the OC and favorite characters as it is more individual expression.

              Yeah, I quite like what we made this year. Wish we’d had more people getting involved - would have been neat to have like, 10 or so small things in there.
