The guy is using the buzz around the word furry (and anime, while he's at it) to gain interest for his not actually very interesting art. This style of art started out as kitsch, gained some retro appeal, and now has become so ubiquitous as retro kitsch that it is dated as retro kitsch since at least the mid-nineties. And it ain't exactly technically that difficult. I'm not saying he's in it for the money; it could be just ego. Either way, I am saying he's a hack.
Furthermore, he has the nerve to say he "loves looking into subcultures" despite the fact that the subculture he claims he has looked into already has its own unique artistic tradition that approximately five seconds of "looking into the subculture" would unearth that just as obviously has not inspired his art. At all.
This man has obviously never seen furry art (or, for that matter, anime). To claim his work is inspired by either ... That's just insulting.
