Favourites: Architecture photography

3 days ago

I wanted more historical architecture in this collection, but the site's lacking search function let me down... Oh well! While modern architecture isn't usually my favourite, photography has really opened my eyes to some of its beauty. Feast your eyes on these dramatic shapes and carefully crafted details, captured by a range of talented photographers:

Featuring some Featured Deviations. 5/16/25

3 days ago

Hi again! It's Friday again! For some reason that's Feature Day for me. " Andor " season 2 finished the other day. That series is probably the best Star Wars thing ever. It's up there with the best anyway. It's so satisfying AND it leaves you wondering ( a.k.a. wanting ) more. I can't praise it enough. ( If you didn't enjoy it, that's fine, but be respectful voicing your thoughts (( if you feel the need )), because not everyone wants to have their parade crapped on. ) I also saw the new Marvel movie, " Thunderbolts " last weekend. That was VERY good too. It held it's own. One of the better newer Marvel flicks. And now, on with the show! Frog-tastic. Well, thanks again for looking! Laterz!

Feature: Recent Resources + Undiscovered Art V

4 days ago

It is the 15th (or, technically, 1AM on the 16th), so it's time to feature some resources! As usual, the feature will have three parts: One with resources posted during the last month (stock images, tutorials, lineart/bases, brushes, etc.), then a selection of great artwork I have discovered recently with less than 50 favorites, and finally interesting community news such as contests or similar. I'll post one feature once a month, around the 15th, and I plan to keep this going for a while. Also, please suggest more resources in the comments! They deserve more attention We'll start with the resources, as usual. In no specific order: With that covered, it is time to look at some great new artworks which deserve more attention! And finally, the community events - once again listed by @moonbeam13 . Some of the deadlines have already passed, but there's still plenty to check out ...And that should be it for now. I wish you all a good day/night! Previous

Let me welcome you all to a another issue of my new series, titled: Throwback Thursday: Fractal Legacy. In this series, we'll journey back in time to celebrate the incredible contributions of fractal artists, who were once vibrant voices in our community. Though they may not be active today, their artistic vision, innovative techniques, and stunning creations have left an undeniable mark on the world of fractal art. Join me as we rediscover their masterpieces and draw inspiration from the legacies they've built. In the third issue, we will be revisiting the fractal art by @Platinus Renowned for his vibrant and intricate fractal artworks, @Platinus was a pivotal figure in the fractal art community, leaving a lasting legacy through his creative and advocacy efforts. Active on DeviantArt for many years, Travis Williams, known as @Platinus, mastered tools like Apophysis to create pieces that burst with bold colors, complex patterns, and a psychedelic flair.

Springtime FEATURE: The Creepy Crawlies are out!

4 days ago

Hi All, (if you don't read my ramblings I'm not bothered, but please do try to find time to skip ahead to the feature ) Project update time I guess! I mentioned that I had finished both my computer projects, now I have had enough time to post some finished pics of my sleeper build: There's plenty more info in the descriptions for those of you who are interested, and my other build (the media PC) had worked until we put an overclocked GPU in it and blew up the small 300W PSU, but projects are like that sometimes, I'll post some pictures of that build too at some point ---------- This is the part where I usually show the thumbnail for my last feature, but this time here's something else instead, I was tagged to participate by @MyGranny4 #GetToKnowMe The 10 Questions What’s your favorite word? I can't decide between 'gold' (because shiny!) and 'spider' (because yelling it always makes people scream) What word do you hate? Any corporate buzz word like "this empowered us to

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...

Fan Art Friday: Jane Austen

0 min read

This week, we turn the page back in time and immerse ourselves in the refined wit, romantic tension, and social commentary that defines the beloved works of Jane Austen. From the headstrong Elizabeth Bennet to the quietly perceptive Anne Elliot, Austen's heroines have captured the hearts of readers—and artists—for generations. Whether inspired by the windswept English countryside or the sharp banter of drawing room dramas, these fan works bring Austen’s timeless characters and stories to vibrant life. "I am half agony, half hope." — Persuasion "You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." — Pride and Prejudice "Know your own happiness. Call it hope. Call it anticipation. It is the same thing." — Sense and Sensibility Let these passionate declarations, quiet longings, and sly observations transport you to Austen’s world through the eyes of our talented community. Explore previous editions in our Fan Art Friday Collection
