About our group

The primary focus of this group continues to be digital painting and digital drawing, which should be submitted to the 'Featured 15 - Drawings, Paintings etc.' folder. This group also accepts and has folders for animation, cartography, designs and interfaces, deviantWEAR, pixel art and pixel animation, vector and vexel artworks, comic strips, pages and panels, matte painting, mature content, mixed media, mixed media - 3D, 3D art, 3D objects, Line Art, Black and White Art, or any uncolored artworks, monochromatic art, abstract and surreal art, commission information, tutorials and resources, announcements, colourist art and wallpaper submissions.


As always, I would like to congratulate the members on the continuing high quality of their artworks, which are always a pleasure for me to accept.

While it is understood that digital art is digital art in general this group primarily highlights art from:
Digital Painting/Airbrushing
Digital Drawings
Digital Mixed Media with very minimal or preferably no photographic content

Please understand that if you are a member submitting photomanipulations, fractal, typography or traditional artworks, while I respect your work, I will regretfully decline it because this is not what this group is showcasing.   We also do not accept artworks created in online programs. We only accept completed artworks and not work in progress (W.I.P.)  If an artwork is declined, I will always send a message explaining why.

Artworks containing nudity must be tasteful and have artistic merit. Full frontal nudity is rarely accepted, nor are sexually explicit artworks, hentai, pornography, fetish art, an excess of crude language or those containing grossly enlarged body parts or vagina or anus pointing directly at the viewer, clothed or unclothed will be declined. Having said this, there can be exceptions but my decision will take into consideration the high number of young members in this group.

If you submit mixed media, matte paintings or any other category of art, and stock/photos are used, it must be very minimal, preferably in the background, with the majority of the artwork digitally painted or drawn, or I will regretfully decline it. In most cases, if I really love the image, I will add it to my personal favourites as I frequently do.

As this group is not exclusively an adoptables group, in order for the art in the group to remain balanced and varied, as from the 10th of February, new Memberships of adoptables only artists will be declined for an unspecified amount of time.

I would like to congratulate for being the 10,000th member of this group and I have chosen three of my favourite artworks from her gallery to celebrate this occasion.

   

Because it is always hard to miss out by one digit, I would also like to congratulate and welcome members 9,999 and 10,001 by also featuring two of my favourite artworks from their galleries:
  and    

Another wonderful selection of artworks, from the many talented members of our group. My method is to arrange the artworks in colours that work best together, and vary the subject matter, so that a portrait is not next to another portrait nor a landscape next to landscape and I usually select pixel art, 3D, cute and/or animated to finish the feature.
