I hope that DA is so impressed by this venture, that one day this will be turned into a full-scale glossy mag publication for Deviant Art, perhaps a subscriber-only mag at first. Artists will be asked permission to publish their works of course. Can you imagine taking DEVIANCE to show your family and friends the brilliant art community you are part of, and perhaps even show them the feature about your work?? Oh I can dream...


The first issue contains exclusive artist interviews of Jens Callius and John Kimbler aka , and some fabulous writing by Diana Ostrat aka

These interviews are designed to help you get to know the artist behind the work in a more in-depth fashion.
I hope they also help to inspire and awe all readers.

There are also mini features of other artists, that are not to be missed.

Each month will feature two artists who are from two different styles. I hope to interview the unknowns as well as the well-knowns, so do drop me a note with any artists you would recommend. I will be including literature too.

All literature submitters can send me a direct note too, as I have a section called THE LIT CORNER which will have featured poetry and prose... gotta Note me to be in it!


Inside you will also find these goodies:


* YOUR SAY Where you get to voice whatever is on your mind. The first issue contains the topic "Art vs Porn". Note me with anything you would like to include in the next issue for June. I am suggesting the topic "DA vs Artician - the pros and cons", but it doesn't have to be this.

* dA PULSE DA news, contests, notices, help desk info, deviousness awards etc etc.

* PHOTOGRAPHY 101 Tutorials by =TThealer

* STOCK & AWE With ^Hanratty-Stock

* THE LIT CORNER Awesome writings (send me yours now!!)

* THE OUTSIDE SOURCE Links to great tutorials, sites, etc for artists on the web.

* GIGGLES GALORE Funny DA images and LOL corner excerpts.

* ART SCOPES Horoscopes just for artists, designed to inspire and motivate. Will also include the DA birthdays for the month.

* PLUG-IN Where DA artists can plug their products, websites etc (send me yours!!!)

* THE LAST WORD Great text art to end the zine on.

And much much more!

All these sections make DEVIANCE your DA one-stop-shop. And it's free!!! What more could you want???
No, I'm not giving out stickers....

I need all the help I can get to plug this awesome project, so if you'd like to put the cover in your journal, I would be ever so chuffed!
Here's the code:

(Just be sure to remove the two end spaces to make it work)


I am also looking for any reliable volunteers who would love to take a section of the zine and make it theirs - sending me a completed section to me by the 20th of each month. I will be doing the main interviews, art scopes (and a few other things) and Chief Editing of the zine. This is something that would be great for your resume, as you will need to do research, do graphic design & Photoshop work, and will demonstrate organizational skills. If you don't have great English spelling and grammar skills, please don't apply. I want perfectionists involved in this, so if that's you, Note me quick before someone else does!


Hugs!
