About Me
Welcome to my Furry Compendium!
My name is Elijah Sparkes, and I am a 29-year-old furry artist from Aotearoa New Zealand. I've been drawing most of my life and have recently taken the leap to share my work with the world.
I am a digital artist and primarily use Krita with a Huion H610 Pro tablet. My style blends cartoon and painterly approaches, and I love to render textures such as fur and wood in my work. Furry art is my main passion at the moment, although I draw fantasy creatures of many kinds, including my Dungeons and Dragons characters, Neopets, and closed species.
Pictured right is my fursona, Xav. He's a Turkish Van cat and he's rather hard to please, and he loves to play video games, listen to music, and go for swims. He also has an unusual fixation on the moon.
Check out my portfolio, and feel free to reach out and chat with me about art!
Those Who Went Missing
This Neocities also hosts my trackers for the ARPG, Those Who Went Missing (created by witherlings). I have been playing on-and-off since early 2018 and my participation in the game has helped improve my art skills, tackle my fear of backgrounds, and create and develop characters that I love. If you take an interest in fantasy creatures, definitely check it out.

The art I create for TWWM is hosted on my DeviantArt.
Speedrunning
One of my other favourite hobbies is speedrunning. I love to run old PS1 titles such as Croc and the Crash Bandicoot series, and I cut my teeth on Spyro Reignited Trilogy. While I'm not amazing at any one game, I do have a world record in SRT 80 Dragons!
One of my hopes for 2025 is to find more time to improve my skill in the Crash Bandicoot trilogy and The Wrath of Cortex, obtain a top 5 standing in Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, and work my way up to a 337% NMS run in Spyro Reignited Trilogy.
