There's a dimly lit, abandoned art shop that seems to be in the wrong part of town. Foot traffic in the shop is surprisingly busy, yet no one ever leaves with artwork in tow...
You decide to enter the building on a whim.
"Welcome to Asphodel Petals Art Sh---", a man behind the counter stops mid sentence and sighs, "This isn't an art shop anymore. I don't know what it is now, to be honest. You'll find the artists, cat fanatics and regulars beyond the studio."
He directs your attention first to the door, then to a sign with the shop's rules and history.
The sign reads....

Welcome to Asphodel Petals : An Artsy 18+ Hangout Thread. We often call it "AP" around these parts.
You're probably wondering about that weird intro. December 26th, 2008 I started an art shop here on Gaia called Asphodel Petals without any idea that it would grow into, well, this. A couple friends from outside of the shop stuck around and they were followed by a few repeat customers until one day we had a little family that just keeps growing.
We all migrated around Gaia in a bit of a herd and now I think it's about time for us to settle down. I'm finding less and less time to devote to commissions, so instead of put the shop on hiatus again I want to give us a permanent place to go. It's been a friends' chat thread for a long time (but people could place art orders there).
AP was essentially founded on a few unchangeable things: love of cats and the arts, and a simple desire for a lighthearted place to chat. We're pretty tight-knit since the older regulars have grown up together, but we always love company and making new friends.
