I'm so happy! It was like a present waiting for me when I got back from my trip. :aww:


:heart::heart::heart::heart:

Thank you to whomever recommended it and to ^Sander-Seto for featuring it. You made my day.

Join me on Netflix!

I know I haven't been around much. Been dealing with some pretty sucky back/carpal tunnel issues...so I've been keeping my distance from the computer. If I am slow getting back to you about anything, please bear with me. I'm really looking forward to getting back to my favorite online community and looking at all your amazing art.

Be gone most of this coming week 'cuz I'm traveling down South, but I'll be back next Monday, so I hope to be able to answer some messages and take in some of your art next Tuesday. Until then, take care and group hug!:heart:

One more thing...

"Fairy Tales" will be published in the next issue of Layers magazine.

:woot: & I recently sold another print, "The Way of the Crane."


I'm super excited about these new developments.

Discover some new artists!

When was the last time you clicked the "Random Deviant" button? I did just a minute ago and discovered a really cool photo. I need to click it again...never know whom I might discover. :heart:

I can't teach you all I know, but

Occasionally I am peppered with questions about how to do what I do. Usually the request is extraordinarily nebulous--"teach me!" Teach you what, exactly? Honestly I can't teach you everything I know. I'm a self-taught artist who spent thousands of hours in front of a computer, ruining my wrists to get to where I am now. (Not that where I am is anything special, necessarily.) But I can point you to a few resources.

Manipulation resources: [link] , [link]

Photoshop resources: [link] , [link]

A little insight into my big-headed people: [link]

OK, that being said, I can and will answer VERY SPECIFIC questions re: Photoshop.

So I hope this helps. Honestly, I think the best way to learn to do digital art is to just get in your program of choice and play. Experiment. That's mostly how I did it.

Oh, and also my husband wants you to know that he just farted. You know what I love most about him? The class.

So I'm looking through the Surreal manips category (because I always check out the latest manips/artists in the last category I submitted to) when I stumble upon this dude's gallery: [link removed so as not to give this douche more hits]

Seriously, WTF? I know I've asked this before, but I'll ask again: can these freaks just get their own categories? I mean, that's not a surreal manipulation, that's manipulation dedicated to an extremely disturbing--not to mention screamingly misogynistic--fetish. Jesus.
