I know, not many people are reading my Journals, but maybe SOME might and I guess every single bit helps.
What I am talking about is a very dear friend of mine: ~cbeaudry Right now she doesn't have a home to live in, she live's in a tent in a park together with her husband and has big problems finding a new home!
Since she has so very big problems, I try to spread the word of the two books she wrote, so that she may be able to get some money out of them:
She wrote two books Emo Boy and Unjudged of The Raven Song's Saga, which you can buy on Amazon for your Kindle and as a paperback here: Book 1 http://www.amazon.com/Emo-Ravens-Song-Saga-ebook/dp/B009JLYF4S/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1370258343&sr=8-5&keywords=raven+song+saga Book 2 http://www.amazon.com/Unjudged-Ravens-Song-Saga-ebook/dp/B00BXKFN80/refd_sim_kstore_1
The books are about the high school students Violet and Dane. Violet knows she is different from the other kids at her new high school. It isn't just her

HOLE/HOLES Themed Contest!Theme: HOLE/HOLES…More Like This
Yes that's right Holes! They are everywhere we look...Up, down, in or out, there are HOLES about! But are they art? We for one, believe so! Yes, HOLES really ARE art, whether we have made HOLES, eaten HOLES, fallen into HOLES, have HOLES in our heads or in our hearts, or just digging ourselves out of HOLES.
HOLES, through the eyes of an artist CAN be ART! We see and find them everywhere...right now if you look about and around you, you will see HOLES. They have always been around! Who knows WHEN the first HOLE was ever made, or HOW it was made or even WHY it was made! Since that first HOLE, they have been unstoppable...popping up everywhere we go, some-times right under our feet...but ARE they ART?
With this contest, we are all about to find out!
We challenge you, to go forth and give us your best artistic HOLE!!! Make us all say "Holy Cow", now that’s a HOLE!!
Make us drool for your HOLES and make us wish we ha
digital art hiatus - back to the rootsI've been planning to do this for some time now: My very personal improvement challenge.More Like This
My art doesn't really get better because I only draw what I'm remotely good at and don't practise -> I can only draw portraits, not whole characters, nor scenes, nor landscapes and so forth -> I want to improve so badly though -> I need to get back to the basics and practise, practise, practise and practise some more!
Meaning: You'll not see any digital art from me for the next three months (at least). I'll be doing anatomy exercises, perspective exercises, landscape drawing exercises etc. etc. in that time - all traditionally, with good ol' pencil & friends. I'll be practising every day (like I should have been for the past few years) and will upload any and all of the results to this newly created gallery folder here: http://riemea.deviantart.com/gallery/44192352 No worries, I won't spam you with this stuff every day, only twice a week

The Enduring Enigma of CollageFebruary 21, 2013/by $techgnoticMore Like This
Collage is one of those art forms that immediately sets off heated debate about our most fundamental ideas and visceral feelings about the very essence of art itself.
Turn of the century troublemakers Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso began enhancing their paintings with glued on bits of cut out fabric and other materials, thus neatly blurring the line between the art categories of painting and sculpture. They shifted the emphasis or “meaning” of their painted images beyond an attempted interpretation of the painted “text” to thinking about the artists’ “process” – something wholly separate from the paintings themselves.
And with that a whole new Rubic’s Cube of basic questions about art was opened up:
Is an assemblage of “found” junk
The Unexpected Love ContestHas someone special that you love surprised, delighted, or changed your life in an unexpected, but joyful way? I want to hear your stories.More Like This
So Unexpected…
One of the best things about finding new love is the excitement and anticipation of the unknown. All of us at one time have felt that exhilarating feeling of unforeseen passion. I want for you to express to me in a poem or short story this unexpected feeling, and what it ultimately means to you. Be as vividly original as you can to make your deviation stand out, but do keep our key elements of what you feel the aspects of “unexpected love” entails as your primary motivation while writing.
The Lonely PathFebruary 13, 2013/by $techgnoticMore Like This
“
I have never found a companion who was so companionable as solitude.
Henry David Thoreau
I always thought Thoreau’s comment was simply a word game— ultimately not of much value and false at its core. A Valentines Day in solitude should mean being all alone and alone means being unhappy, pure and simple. Still, it will turn out in life that the most alone we can feel is ironically in the crush of family and friends and even in the embrace of one’s Valentines Day companion— but lost and unfulfilled in one’s dreams and visions.

Communal Karma #2Communal KarmaMore Like This
Hello there and welcome to the second edition of Communal Karma.
In the Communal Karma series I highlight the devious little squirrels who have suggested literature DD's in the past month. To do this I will collect the names of the suggesters from the past months DD's. I am aware, of course, that many other deviations are being suggested to our lovely and all powerful overlords but I don't have access to those!
The point of this feature is to make those who support the literature community get seen themselves, a karmic reward for doing good and expecting nothing in return. It might also encourage more people to suggest incredible literature for the site-wide feature, which is also great because it means that the CV's will have eyes and ears all over the site finding amazing unseen gems to share with the rest of us.
Suggesting a Daily Deviation is a very kind thing to do. It doesn't happen at the click of a button and these people made conscious decisions

Since I've got nothing, I turned to someone who is pretty amusing around these parts. The thumbnails featured throughout this article were provided by `HaveTales-WillTell (or are from his gallery), so you don't have to take my word for it.
What do you find funny?
Above all else, I delight in cleverness. When reading, that often means puns and other forms of wordplay; with visual media, there can be the additional dimension of a character's actions mirroring or contrasting with their mannerisms, dialogue or accent.
These days, puns are underappreciated, relegated to opening-monologue punchlines and thrown-together internet memes. (Walken on Sunshine, anyone?) Back in the day, it was different: Shakespeare, for example, included them in some form in every single one of his plays. One memorable e

Street, children, is a state of mindStreet, children, is a state of mind: what defines street photography is not the subject, but the 'forma mentis' of the photographer.More Like This
Street photography is a way to look at the ordinary and see the unusual in it, to look at everyday situations and find a decisive moment in them, to look at candid happenings and see iconic interactions between people and surroundings in them.
The iN-PUBLiC | Manifesto, one of the most representative sites about street photography in the world, states that "all the photographers featured there have been invited to show their work because they have the ability to see the unusual in the everyday life and to capture the moment".
The subject of a street photo is not necessarily interesting, unusual, unseen in itself, but its strenght comes from the NARRATIVE CONSTRUCTION that the photographer is able to create around the subject. The way the photographer presents it, his original point of view, his capacity to take subjects out of context and juxtapose unrel

Jest bardzo zapracowana, ale znalazła chwilę, aby odpowiedzieć na nasze pytania. Pisze, rysuje, a dodatkowo studiuje! Przed Państwem... Marta "*Kyoux" Opalińska!More Like This
1. Jak to się stało, że zaczęłaś zajmować się rysunkiem i pisaniem? Sama odkryłaś u siebie talent czy ktoś Ci pomagał?
*Kyoux: Rysowałam od dziecka. Wtedy najlepszym i najbardziej trafionym prezentem były dla mnie kredki. Miałam ich mnóstwo. Nie tylko lubiłam nimi rysować, ale je temperować i układać. Fascynowały mnie ich kolory.
W podstawówce kupiłam swój pierwszy numer nieistniejącego już czasopisma "Kawaii" i wpadłam po uszy w mangę i anime.

May's Manga and Anime Artist of the Month: Gasara!Hello and welcome everyone to another issue of our Manga and Anime Artist of the Month! I'm especially honoured to announce that May's Artist of the month award goes to the incredible artist =Gasara!More Like This
Ever since I met Laura I fell in love with her art! Her style is simply fascinating, filled with magic and charming characters! Stalking her art gave me the chance to get to know her a little bit and she's a very sweet and helpful person, offering resources to pretty up your profiles, giving words of help and support, creating tutorials for growing artists...
All in all, Laura is a wonderful artist and deviant, totally deserving of being May's Manga and Anime Artist of the Month!!
Congratulations!

im sorry I didn't give you a direct and easy to understand answer but... I hope this will be better than the answer i gave you two XD I wont note you back but i hope you will see the journal ; A ;
I've also had people comment that they wish they had more watchers so here are some tips ;u;
Also, some parts of this guide is mostly for visual artists that do drawings

To artists who want to offer commissions. I would like to address something I have been seeing as of late here and on other sites. Artists who are asking if someone would commission them if they were to offer commissions and if so, how much should they charge or how much are they willing to pay?More Like This
I say this with a real heart to all artists, but that is a foolish line of questions.
Really. I have been there. I even did those myself. But look at it from the side of a potential buyer.
1: Would you even commission me?
Can you imagine if a doctor were to say that? If I were to open an office would you even come to me? That makes the doctor feel like a failure. Like he has so little faith in his ability to do his job he is afraid to do it. So he has to ask a thousand people IF he were to open an office would ANYONE come? Would you? Or would you want a doctor who just opens it and does his job and believes in his ability to treat you?
Same with an artist. You sound like you have no faith in your ability. If you do

For the past few months `RockstarVanity has been running #fella and has done an extraordinary job! However, she is trying to pull back a little and has handed leadership of the group over to me. `RockstarVanity will still be a part of the group's posse and help run things within the group.
For those of you that do not know me, my name is `TimberClipse, or in real life, Zev. I am a student and filmmaker and absolutely love the deviantART community. I currently run a number of groups, but the two main ones that I focus on are #fella and #deviant365 (deviantART's official 365 group).
We will be ramping up some new events here at #fella shortly including a small contest that will be announced soon, so stay tuned!
In the mean time, drop by `RockstarVanity's page and give her a huge thank you for all she has done and will continue to do.

Stop Using Subscript in Your LitOr, Why Tiny Text Is Bad.More Like This
(FACT: It's not just because some of us have crappy vision.)
I know some of you like the effect, but here's the deal: do whatever you want on your own monitor and keep your hands off mine.
Did you know that, in Windows, holding Ctrl and moving the scroll wheel up or down changes font size? You do now, and it's not much harder to change zoom size on a Mac (I hear it is most likely cmd++ or cmd+- , cmd+0 reverts it to the original size). I know it's just as easy in Linux, anyway.
I already have my browser's text size display set to what I want, thank you very much.
Anyone who uses Word must be familiar with the concept of font size in points: 12pt Times New Roman, especially, when it comes to turning in essays for teachers. (And 13pt periods for those of you who couldn't hit that minimum page count)
Well, here's the deal: Web display doesn't work quite the same way. You can force all text to be 16

Undiscovered (Beta): Unearthing Quality ArtArt Under The RadarMore Like This
Each day, hundreds of thousands of pieces of art are submitted to deviantART. As more and more artists join, create, and share their work, it becomes easy for high quality art to miss its chance to stand out and be seen.
Our new browse mode, Undiscovered, aims to bring new, high quality artwork to the foreground.
Finding Hidden Gems
Undiscovered focuses on recently submitted artwork that has not yet drawn attention or recognition at the levels of Popular or What's Hot browse modes. Using an algorithm that identifies patterns in community behavior when curating content, Undiscovered generates a browsing experience that draws attention to creative art and talented artists that may not receive the same level of attention from other browse modes.
Please keep in mind that the algorithm that powers Undiscovered is still new and we may make changes as it grows in use.

Creating Columns
Multiple columns are a great way to present your information in a journal skin. Whether you simply want to write text in two columns, or want to do something more advanced with it, columns are a great way to add that little bit extra to your aesthetics!
There is no limit to the number of columns you create, but you need to keep in mind that if you add too many your design will start to look worse on smaller screens. I personally find it's best to stick to two or three columns (though even numbers are much easier to work with). Throughout this tutorial, I'm going to work with three columns.
