Interviewed artist: SoulOfDavid

Tell us what defines you as a person.

I'm a silent person but very resourceful in terms of knowledge, especially in art. I want to learn alone. I like to discover something new. It's some kind of a challenge for me. I want my artworks to speak for me.

How did you found out about deviantART and why did you join the community?

I found deviantART on Facebook sharing. I was amazed on the beautiful artworks showcasing many talented artists there, so, i decided to join after finishing some of my vector drawings.

When and how did you discover your passion for art?

When i was 12 years old i started to draw vehicles, then lately i got interested in landscape drawings. My passion in portraits began i think when i was 15 and goes on...

What inspires you the most and when do you think your creativity is at its maximum?

I think there is no maximum creativity. Everytime i was inspired to do artworks, i want it to be much better than the last one. It's endless. Especially when i received some great and positive comments regarding to my artworks and that is truly inspires me now and then.

What do you think you'd be doing if you hadn't chosen this path?

I'm very sure that i am a journalist now if i haven't chosen to be an artist because i love literatures and books.

What do you think it's your most meaningful deviation and what makes it special? Does it have a story behind it?

When i uploaded my very first digital portrait of Jessica Sanchez last May this year, i didn't expect to be recognized and receive inspiring comments from all deviants. As a result, i have more than a hundred digital portrait uploaded in my gallery now. Amazing.

Do you have any insecurities regarding your art?

Yes, of course. Especially when i saw some amazing artworks of others. But i put all the things in a very positive way. I make it to be one of my inspiration in doing my future artworks instead.

Did art ever helped you to deal with your life problems?

Art is my life. I struggle everytime i have a problem. The same when i'm doing with my artwork.

What is the one thing you always wanted to do but never got a chance to?

Very funny... i want to have my own digital portrait but i don't know when i should start doing it!

A few words for our fellow artists?

Just keep doing what you like most because you will be great in that way. Avoid doing different styles that may confuse your art and your identity as an artist. Focus. Improve your art every time. And the most important thing is, as i always say... Learning is never ending and truly rewarding.

The hunterThe night is for the hunters The daybreak a release For the weak and fragile hearted Now go as you please The sun is your protector The light will make me burn Your blood will catch the warmth And the warmth will make me yearnFeel your body shiver As the darkness settles in In the end it makes no difference Who is gonna lose and who is gonna win Your demise is getting closer It'll be a hell on earth In the end, see, all that matters Is what your love was worthI sense your body stiffen You know I'll hunt you down You can run but you can't hide I know every spot in town It's the hunter and the rabbit Tragedy and feast No-one will be save her...:thumb345819086: The PlaceIt probably was laced but it's too soon for no surprises- you are breathing smoke and vitriol, scorched canvas from the oracle, kindling your dry heart alive for a liar who never spars with the demon, let alone you.
