[edit] Artwork

Oz maintains two online galleries of his furry artwork; some of his art depicts furs in a comical state of inflation. There are several other galleries of his art online, though he has abandoned them to focus solely on his deviantART and Fur Affinity accounts.

[edit] Costuming

Oz Kangaroo runs Critter Country, a mascot costuming business, and builds fursuits for furry folks as well as mascot characters for corporate clients. Oz's company is continuing to grow, with ever-larger corporate clients adding Oz-commissioned mascots to their company's image. Within the fandom, Oz has built fursuits for Aethas, Ceana, Duncan Roo, Nbowa, Ristin and Tzup.

Oz's personal fursuits include Clayton (a kangaroo), Duke (a German Shepherd), Kitty (a tiger), RedXIX (a fox) and Anubis as well as a fursuit version of his own character (aptly named Oz.) He has also produced an inflating/body expanding version of the Oz suit which has been used in skits at furry conventions with humorous results.

Both Clayton and Duke were designed and built by Brokken T. Wolf, while Kitty had its origins with Wildwolf. Oz made his first convention appearance as Duke at Furry Weekend Atlanta 2007 and has used the suit at charity events and promotions ever since.

[edit] Conventions

Oz is a regular at Further Confusion and Furry Weekend Atlanta. Also he was set to be the Guest of Honor at Oklacon 2008, but later backed out.
