Respect the Art!

=Masterwks:iconMasterwks: reports, 9h 38m ago
We all have a piece of artwork that has meaning to us but very few people see it the same way we do. Artwork that we think is just OK becomes wildly popular, while good meaningful artwork gets forgotten.
So this article is about the missed work. The unloved work. The work that NEEDS to be exposed! Some of these works have very few faves. They all need your attention! So send some love they deserve it!

Ultimate Feature Round 2!

*Lyricanna:iconLyricanna: reports, 21h 2m ago
I re-opend my unique feature. It starts with the usual "comment here and 3 deviations of yours will be featured". Then I took it a step further. I asked the people wanting to be featured to nominate their friends and other deviants. For every nominated deviant, the person nominated, the nominator had an extra piece featured.

The Influence of Japan

*blacklavaPRINTS:iconblacklavaPRINTS: reports, 1d 5h ago
This article is based around the influence that other countries have absorbed into their own culture and artwork from Japanese art and lifestyle. Thumbnails follow an article from people among deviantART, some came forth and submitted thumbs themselves while I requested some from others. Thank you everyone who has participated in giving my article foundations.

10 ways to Express Art – Part V

=Derzorvadur:iconDerzorvadur: reports, October 9
The project started as a mean to collect amazing artists all around deviant in a random way or as well for already personal recognition of the same, this is ONLY for the sake of art, no favoritism or popularity has anything to do with this, only REAL good art will enter in these articles, and the art exposed in here is what we personally consider the best of the best.

Mini-DDs Vol. 9

*SlyDante:iconSlyDante: reports, December 10, 2006
Alright, so this week's DD-worthy selections involve otherworldly video game bees, a playful version of Death, & some twisted toy designs, among other things. But one thing they all have in common (aside from being very impressive) is that each of their artists each walk out of here with a Golden Fefcaine Award in the end:



...My little symbol of amazing artwork with the milk chocolate center. Comes with optional commentary if desired.

So by now, I guess some of you may have heard of this "Featured Artists" trend going around members' journals. Basically, how it works is that a member features some works by ten other members who are the first to comment, then those members each feature ten artists who comment, & so forth.

Well, I guess I wanted to be included somehow, so I made the comment in ~Kyohtee's journal & got featured. But I already feature nine artists a week, so how do I work around the second part of this (especially since the stuff I feature has to be DD-worthy in one way or another)? Kyohtee says it doesn't matter, but...

Well, I'm going to feature ten artists next week anyway...But with my own unique twist. ^_^

Here's how it goes: The first ten people to comment either here or in my journal can pick a piece that they like & think is DD-worthy, & I'll feature it here next week. And of course, any of those members will be given full credit for their suggestions, as well as maybe something extra...=P

Okay, simple concept, but I guess I should mention a few rules:

- The amount of faves, the artist's popularity, the date, etc., doesn't matter this time around. However (& obviously), don't suggest anything that already has a DD.

- Please don't suggest anything that I've already featured as well (although there's probably a small chance of that happening).

- You don't need to suggest your piece in your comment (unless you want to). Just comment first, then suggest later.

- You also don't have to explain why you think whatever you pick is DD-worthy (unless once again, you want to).

- And you don't need to feature ten artists yourself afterwards unless - yet again - you want to.

- Oh, & I'll probably pick more than ten suggestions anyway if I get enough (probably twenty max). Why not? =P

...Well, that's pretty much it. Hope this little twist works out, & I hope I get some good suggestions as well! ^_^

...Oh yeah, I guess I should also get on with the actual Mini-DDs already. Well, here we go!
