Deviation Actions
Ugh! I was going through my notifications and accidentally deleted the links to two two most recent watchers before having a chance to check out their pages and thank them. Is there a way to recover this info? Either way, if you recently started watching me (within a week or so) and I haven't thanked you for watching my art... thank you!!!

New video- watch me paint 'the Phthonus Cabinet'
Another new video, in it you can watch me paint a 12x16" acrylic illustration for the Call of Cthulhu role playing game. I narrate with commentary. please click here: https://youtu.be/4f_YilozjGE
Eat my short!
I've just started experimenting with time-lapse videos of myself making art. This is my first Youtube short: https://youtu.be/2NIqQ61SrnQ I am open to suggestions! Right now, the challenge seems to find the right balance between a good angle and lighting vs a setup which does not hinder my ability to work. I also look to do videos for my wood carving as well, which would have a different set of dynamics to contend with. Wish me luck! ;)
Old man rant about lack of writing
I have noticed a trend in recent deviations, less and less description of people's work... often with no description or explanation at all. Why did you make this piece? Was it for a job... then, what was it and for whom? What is the medium and dimensions? What was your experience like to make it? I find that when people write nothing at all I feel a bit detached and less interested in the piece if the submitter had no interest in the submission process. It feels like they don't care about it, so why should I? Come on people, you put a lot of work into your art, help us appreciate your efforts! I guess I shouldn't make this any longer, as I know people are turned off by the idea of reading as well. *sigh*
AI art is here, but what about traditional art?
Hi Everyone! Perhaps some of you have noticed an influx of art which is partially or entirely made via artificial intelligence here and on other social media. What's your take? Full disclosure: though I find the AI results attractive, I prefer creating via traditional media. I don't look down on those who want to ‘paint’ or ‘sculpt/carve’ using computers but I personally get more satisfaction and enjoyment when using my hands on a more tangible medium. For me, the 'old world' processes have more romance to them, and I appreciate the human element. Yet, I certainly see the convenience and benefits of going digital! It is certainly a time saver. You can also do things which would be very challenging if not impossible by hand, like mixing different media together in one image. In the 90's I became aware of graphics tablets, I recall a lot of conversation in art school about the arrival of 'computer art'. Some embraced it, enjoying to be on the forefront of technology, while

I don't think there's a way to do that. Try looking at who faved some recent works, and see if you recognize anybody.
Maybe try checking the "Users Online" link in the upper right to see if you recognize anybody
