Hello dear Deviants [EMOTE] It’s been a long time since I last shared a “Best Of” so here’s my latest selection, offered entirely subjectively. At a time when the world seems to be going through so much, I must admit that diving back into my favourites to put this together has been a comforting experience. It’s a way to reconnect with what brings us together here: creativity, the gaze of others, and that quiet dialogue between artworks. I also want to send a special thought to my friends from [EMOTE]Lebanon and [EMOTE]Iran, many of whom have left DeviantArt. I’m thinking in particular of Omid and Hanan, with whom I shared, as well as with other former Deviants, wonderful moments, both friendly and creative. @EintoeRn @RichardLeach [DEVIATION] That sense of community, of exchange and generosity, is something I’ve missed lately, even though I still see beautiful collaborations here and there. On a brighter note, I’m thrilled to welcome back our friend Ulrich aka @EintoeRn after

Features are Previews of artwork that are posted in a journal that are used as Hyperlinks that would go straight to your Artwork that you uploaded to your own gallery with a "click" of the Preview picture. Being Featured in a journal might give you an increased chance to have other Deviants to view your artwork, Favorite, Comment or even Gems as they please. Features are very well known and Positive to the DeviantArt Community! If you wish not to be Featured, Please send me a Note so I can remove your Artwork from the journal. NOTHING IN

Featuring some Featured Deviations. 3/6/26

Hi! It's time to feature more featured Deviations. Actually, because DA is being really wonky about notifying people that they've been featured, I'm gonna make this list a bit shorter than usual... which might be tricky cuz I have so many to choose from. In the past, I think when I featured too many, DA got wonky. So, let's just see what happens. [EMOTE] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] [DEVIATION] Okay! Time for me to do some work at work! [EMOTE] Hope ya like this selection! Laterz! [EMOTE]

Dec 10, 2024

I guess in the current world flooded with AI it's important to reach out a helping hand to other real artists. So I decided to share as many resources as I can and I hope some can find that interesting/important/useful! I'll make sure to update this periodically and keep it all "topic accurate" (as a specific sections so everybody can find something for themselves! Most of them are free to use! If you know any useful sites then feel free to share! USEFUL TOOLS FOR WRITING! Thesaurus | Synonyms and Antonyms of Words - I think this one doesn't need introduction, haha!

How to draw Minty The Garden Dragon!

Jul 1, 2024

The theme for this month is Garden Dragons! 🌱 For this tutorial I will be featuring Minty The Mint Dragon as one of my favorite Garden Dragons to draw! Follow the steps and create your own artwork! Post your drawing on DeviantArt with the tag #GardenDragonTutorial and get a Profile badge! I mainly sketch my work in Painter SAI2. A lot of my color work is done in Corel Painter using the "Mona Lisa" brush. :bulletgreen: What is a Garden Dragon? A garden dragon is a plant-like dragon that lives in a garden pot. I originally called them "Bonsai Dragons." I have evolved them since the first creation of Bonsai Dragon and have made several different variations of them like Minty Dragon. :bulletgreen: Why this art style? I love to read and make comics of my own and have developed this cute art style to fit my very own comic that I run called Lucky Dragon and Friends. I post this comic regularly here on DeviantArt as well as on WebToon. Some of the recent episodes of my comic

Resources For Artists: Colour Scheme Tools

Jan 4, 2013

Colour Scheme Tools So I have been thinking of doing a few articles apart from feature articles to link some useful resources for artists and this is the first one of these. While this is a mini one, it's helped me a lot on several occassions.Sometimes it gets confusing to decide which colours to choose. "'Should I go with a turquoise and a gold for the face? What about the room? I was going for a chic cool modern palette which is minimalistic!" Surely, a lot of us have gone through those decisive moments. Below are some colour scheme tools that would help you with your colour scheme choices. Click the titles or the links in asterisk to go...
