| Any good girl needs to know how to defend herself. As you can see here, someone seriously made Paradox mad - and that's a BIG no-no. XD |
| When I try to do art, I make it with a purpose in mind - not just to garner attention or to earn 10 bazillion comments and faves. I try to improve myself by practicing as much as I can - meaning making the best of every picture that I am able. |
| I don't fave every single item in my watchlist, nor do I only fave fanart and "omgdesu" crap. (Even though I have a weakness for great Danny Phantom art, ohoho.) Mostly, I have to like the artist and their personality. If the person is a complete waste of oxygen, then I won't give respect by acknowledging their work. However, if the person is good and kind, respectful and opinionated...then I will respect their art. |
by £deviantWEAR| I don't want much, really...but I wouldn't mind a gift from my list here and there! |
| Am I an artist? That question pops up everywhere and in many forms. The question that must be answered first, however, is a deceptively simple one. What is art? Art, by definition, is a creation. It is that which is not drawn from either of the two bases of instinct: reproduction and survival. (Thank you, Scott McCloud.) Therefore, anything that does not fall into those two categories completely is art. Food, for example. Eating just to eat falls under survival. Add flair, cook a dish you invented...that may be survival, but it's also art. So to answer my question...yes. I am an artist. I am an artist who is learning. And that learning garners respect. If you respect me, I will respect you back...simple as that. |
| I just recently discovered this feature, having activated it on my newer work. I think that critiques are an excellent idea, and a very big plus of my respect ideal. I will try to critique as many pictures as I can find that have this feature activated! |

While me on the other hand,
I Scraped up both of my wrists,
Scraped my chin,
Got my knee,
and tore a hole in the only good pair of black Pants that I have

Send one to all your friends who you think deserve a hug (which, hopefully includes the person who sent it to you)!!
You might send it to your enemies as well!
It'll really make them stop and think!!!
If you don't receive this back, nobody likes you, and they wish you'd stop bugging them!
If you receive this back 1 time, open up! Find more friends, enemies, or enemies pretending to be friends
If you receive this back 2 times, you're off to a good start! (Unless you sent it to yourself! That's cheating!)
If you receive this back 3 times, you're a good friend.
If you receive this back 4 times, you're truly loved as a friend!!
