Greetings world! It is with great joy that I get to introduce you to our Avatars! World meet Poly Guy 1 & Poly Guy 2. You can tell who is who, because my co-conspirator is the cuter one! It may seem silly to be so excited about an avatar, but these avatars represents to key aspects of our blog we are trying so eagerly to build.
The first, we think it helps to humanize our blog. We are not faceless bloggers secreted away from the world. Our goal has never been to hide in the shadows, because no one deserves to be a secret. It’s more like we’re the cute twinks standing on the fringes yearning to jump in head first, but still just a little to shy. To combat that shyness we found a happy medium, a stepping stone if you will, as we begin to find our way.
The second, and perhaps more important, these avatars represent a collaboration with a local, young, gay, SF illustrator. We’d like to give our thanks to Nihao for the wonderful illustrated portraits of us! Please support our local LQBTQ artist by following him on @nihaoeric on instagram.
This collaboration, represents the first of what we hope is many more with other local, poly, gay creatives. We truly want this endeavor to be a community effort and an outlet to support and grow those who find their way into our little corner of the world.
Stay tuned! This year promises to be an exciting one. We just couldn’t wait to say hello to you all and the beginning of this thrilling new year!
-Poly Guy 1
