> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
Hi. My name is Steve Jones, and I live on a small island off the south coast of England. I love sport, music, and sunshine. I also like the feeling you get when life throws you a sense of realisation and creative emotion. I enjoy living by the sea.
> Where did you begin with artistic endeavours? How did you come across Abstraction or Surrealism?
I stumbled upon collage art a few years ago, having previously had no practical art experience, other than the occasional bout of creative writing through pros

Deviousness Award Interview with anmariWhat is this Awesome Achievement?
The Deviousness Award is an accolade which is traditionally handed out
on the 1st of every month to one truly outstanding deviant.
The Deviousness Award for May 2013 goes to `anmari.

Hello! I'm Ana! I'm 23 years old and I was born in the Republic of Moldova, which, at the time, was a place in the USSR. Besides my Romanian roots, part of my great-grandparents were Polish and Ukrainian, so you could say that I'm a product of a Eastern-European melting pot!

Nowadays I live and study in France.

I joined deviantART in summer 2006. I was 16 and curious about everything, so I quickly discovered the Chats and I got addicted to dA ever since! In March 2008 I was invited to join the Official Helpers t

All Snapped Up .10 ~ Bloddroppe~ An interview of a talented artist in our General Photography Community

Tell us a bit about yourself, *Bloddroppe! How did you get into photography and why?
I've been interested in art since young age. I used to draw a lot during high school, especially realistic portraits. But after a time I felt that I wanted to experiment with other medias. I photographed a lot of nature with a point and shoot camera at first but I felt that I would like to try working with models instead. So I asked my best friend to model for me in a great field of flowers. I think it was my first shoot with a model so it was very fun and since that shoot I've wanted to continue with photography.
Why are you on deviantART?
I think I discovered deviantART through the site Gaiaonline. I used to post my photography there and was recommended to look up the site. I immediately started to upload my work and recieved gr

A Call to Conversation (15)--:devkathrynodriscoll:Welcome to the thirteenth article focusing on featuring and getting to know the deviants behind the work! This series will be posted every Wednesday. If you have a deviant you'd like to see included, please send =TwilightPoetess a note with the subject "Call to Conversation"--make sure to include the deviant's name as well as a reason you think they'd make a good interview subject! Also, feel free to send along a question or two you'd like to have answered by them!

Devious Hunt #10Welcome to the Devious Hunt!
In this serie of articles you will see two deviants showcased in every issue. But they won't be just any deviants - they will be awesome artists who deserve much much more attention than they got so far, undeappreciated, unknown and promising creators.
In this Devious Hunt you'll meet :iconExScout: (154 watchers) and :iconpalet-pod: (166).
Hello there! Could you tell us a bit about yourself?
~ExScout - Hi, I'm from Ukraine. I haven't got any art education, my job isn't connected in any way with art (I'm an IT system's administrator).
~palet-pod - Hello! My name is Panisa

I'm a free spirit really. Pretty flexible with almost everything other than food. I'm a picky eater and have a major sweet tooth. I love all the good stuff, you know, chocolate, honey, cheese cake, pudding . . . don't have much appreciation for cake though. (O__O) Here I go talking about food again.
I'm half Thai and half brit - don't h

Tell us a bit about yourself.
Hello everyone!

I’m Lauren, a recent university graduate, movie aficionado, book-lover, and music addict. If you’re into Middle East relations, the Avengers, Michael Crichton, or classic rock, we’re probably going to be good friends. And if you’re not, we’re probably going to be go

Interview 'Journal/Gallery CSS'As part of our 5th birthday i have interviewed three persons that are familiar with journal and gallery skins and that also offer them for free use. Please say hello to =SimplySilent, `miontre and =nikkittie!
Most important thing first: tell us a bit about yourself and what you are doing here at dA, especially for those who might not know you yet.
:iconsimplysilent:
Hi there!

I'm =SimplySilent, and I've been on dA for about a year and a half now. I do a lot of digital art, including digital painting, photomanipulation, and pixel art, but during the last few months, I've been teaching myself CSS and making journal and gallery skins for dA.
I'm also part of several groups including #Rising-Artists, #DazzlingDecorations, #feel-art, #projecteducate, and #CSS-Babes
:iconmiontre:

Interview 'User Styles'User Styles are - even though there aren't many contributors - quite popular within dA and are mostly used to optimize a new feature to our own needs. It is pure CSS that modifies the appearance of a website just for you - no one else will see the changes you make.
To be able to use User Styles, you will need a browser extension called Stylish.
As part of our 5th birthday i have interviewed three guys that are familiar with User Styles and that also offer them for others to use. Please say hello to `electricjonny, `rotane and =trezoid!
Most important thing first: tell us a bit about yourself and what you are doing here at dA, especially for those who might not know you yet.
:iconelectricjonny:
My name is Jon Spence, and I mostly tool around with Stylish (extension to allow custom CSS on any website) various places to change how things look, or mostly just hide random crap.

Devious Accents `09Have you ever wondered what goes on in the artistic endeavors of a Senior? What makes them tick?
"Devious Accents" is a feature/interview series of Senior Members here on deviantART that aims to surface key features of each Senior and to show them to the community as a whole, brought to you by #dAseniors--the official group for Senior Members on deviantART!
Finally, thoughts and sentiments from the Senior-side are revealed to the general community. Let's get started!

Joining us this week will be `sodalicious, a long-time deviant socialite and Deviousness Award recipient of July 2005!
`Milotic1406: Why did you decide to make the leap and become a deviant?
`sodalicious: I had browsed the site for 6 months to a year before actually joining. A lot of my online friends from another website had used it to display their artwork and I decided to sign up too. This is actually my third account. The first one I only used to browse artwork with,

Group Therapy: Community^Astralseed of #ProjectPorkchop is sitting on Fella's couch for this month's session.
For those of you not familiar with this series, each month we'll be delving into a group that is dedicated to their members and giving back to the dA Community through exposure, hosting regular events and just being an all around awesome place for deviants to settle in and feel welcome.
In a couple sentences, can you please describe what your group is about?
#ProjectPorkchop was mad as a continuation of my original project Fresh meat which aimed to promote underrated yet talented artists found on dA with weekly articles hoping to put these amazing deviants into the spotlight. I've had a passion for promoting artists who are going unseen since I remember how much work it took for myself to get out there and be seen when I first joined the site. I thought the community could benefit from something like this and over

PART 1 - THE ARTIST & THE ART

PC: Welcome Chibisuke-Chan and thank you for your time!
Chibisuke-Chan: I really did not expect this message in my inbox, so thank you for the opportunity!
PC: Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and your daily life?
Chibisuke-Chan: Well besides being called Chibi and other things online.. (which I will not mention!), my real name is Linda but the few who are close to me may also call me Aby - or any other variation of that, I've seen some creative ones. I'm 20 years old and from New Jersey and no, I'm not orange. My birthday is November 5th and everyone always sings, "Remember, remember, the fifth of November" and I'm frankly sick of it. I'm a full time college student, who at this moment, is stres

Hi, welcome to DA and thanks for agreeing to the interview.
Let's get started: How did you decide on your username?
Ok there is a funny story to my user name. I have a friend name Ben who has had a crush on me since high school. One night we were talking about politically correct terms for "disabled." He was being a little flirty with me and said well can I call you "handi-sexable" instead of handi-capable" and I started to laugh and paused for a moment and said, "How bout we go with EroticGeek and just leave my disability out of it. It doesn't define me anyway, right?

I see.
How did you get into art?
Well, growing up in a hospital, I had a lot of fre
