Celebrating the 14th anniversary of DeviantArt, here's a bit of history.
I joined DA in August 2007 mostly to keep up with a friend. Back then I had my hobbies kind of "on hold" because that was a kind of sad year for my career. I was supposed to finish my thesis but I procrastinated a lot. I played PC games. I was very lazy. Not that now I am not, but back then I really wasn't motivated to seriously pursue music. I don't consider myself particularly good at music, I had tried to compose stuff but it turns out I really suck at playing anything because my hand coordination is pretty bad. I can play chords in a guitar and have pretty good hear

My journey into finding my Style....
Hey everybody, I have been very quiet the last months, time to change this, and time to write a journal on something which is pretty important if you want to pursue art.

Let me start at the beginning, and take us back to November 2011.
Back then, I drew at regularly interval.

Tutorial Hunt Contest
My dear members,
hopefully you have started our new year 2014 just as I wished you would. Please let me summarize a few things that need your kind attention.
:megaphone: Number of rejected submissions is stagnating if not even straightforward rising. It steals our time to write each such submission a personal note to heed the group rules or directly reject it as we don't have time to remind the same artist several times over what we expect the artwork to contain. Also, if that's not clear enough, we do not like rejecting submissions, because then you're sad or confused or angry about it and that's naturally not our goal. Please, I implore y
