myself I wonder, as I'm mostly inspired by stories and myths, is everything I do "fan art?"
the piece I'm currently working on is of a Shinto Goddess, the previous was my interpretation of Little Red
of course sometimes the stories are my own.. then it isn't fan art.. but its illustration not "pure art " lol!

Maybe what Ezpeletea is attempting isn't illustration, then,
