QUESTION: How has deviantART helped you grow as an individual and/or as an artist?

I don’t really remember how I came to DeviantART but I've been a member since 2001 or 2; I think. A while back before I actually became "Me2Smart4U" my computer had a bad virus; while trying to fix the problem I was without the internet for a while because of a bad storm. When I got things back up and running; in the process of trying to backup my old galleries I lost my password and a lot of my old art. I was for sure disappointed but there was nothing I could do but start over with a new account.. 

Just to start off saying; at very young age ART was and is still today my passion. I don't protest perfection yet; I'm always powered by imagination. DA is an awesome site in its own way; yet I just love the magical feeling I get deep down inside. It's that good tingle I get in my soul full of passion. I get so excited when browsing through the wonderful, creative, inspiring displayed galleries. Each are so different yet very unique worlds full of imagination. I take a different journey every time I sign in. I am a tourist, an explorer and a contributing member. I'm always seeing something inspiring that takes me through a magical passageway of creativity. With every trip to DA I'm able to tour the many new found kingdoms of imagination. Every new world I visit I do try to share honest feedback; commenting on work that inspire me. During my sightseeing I meet new people, mingle with different artists and even make new friends who share the same interests. Someone asked me if I dislike when people think weird thoughts when looking at my art. I don't mind the weird thoughts; knowing we each hold our own flashlight seeing and thinking in different directions; I use my open also imaginative mind to see the true passion displayed; and yet every shadow is inspiring. Just think about the person who designed the cell phone or the computer; it all had to start weird or in "abstract" in their brain before the final product. I can never get board when I'm looking at something abstract. There is no right or wrong answer that jumps out to declare "This Is" what its all about! Abstract art is always open to interpretation and that is one of the beautiful things I love about it. With my open mind I enjoy exploring artwork to see where the passageway of imagination takes me. I believe we can and will learn new things through each others creativity. Yet it doesn't matter to me what mediums, tools, or what styles the artist use to display their wonderful work of art. When I view art from "beginners" or "long-timers" I know they all have their own story to tell.

Life is just like photography; its beauty is captured as we learn from the negatives. With each flash from my camera lens I feel I have the power to freeze time. I've been told a picture is worth a thousand words and yet my camera gives me as “A Photographer” ; the power to freeze time and capture memories that should never be forgotten. Inspiration is fragile and it does vanish quickly; yet I am so powered by imagination; I try to express the true statement of who I am. I carry my notebook and camera every where I go because; through all the pictures I capture, all the words I write and thoughts I pondered; I'm always seeing something inspiring. My mind and heart works together to give me a very creative soul.

My major in school is Fine Arts and I wanted to teach it; but schools now days are removing art from their curriculums. I guess I'll have to change my major; but I'm not sure to what just yet. I was thinking about Photo-journalism but I will wait and see. I am a dedicated, hardworking out going person. I'm pleased to let the world know that I have a thirst, a mouth quenching desire for ART. Holding on to my experience with signs of big hopes and dreams; imagination seems to always be at my fingertips and it somehow just pour from my soul. I believe to stop the flow of imagination is like stopping the Earth from spinning; where would we as human be then? Imagination makes the world go round; yet nothing is impossible as long as I believe that anything unreachable is always possible to achieve.

Please keep in mind this is from my own experience!


It seems that there are so many members that hate receiving a "Thank You" message..
from experience I know this because I've been cursed out and sent threatening message from these members. I had to block many and was blocked from many.

Those members seem to think showing my appreciation is wrong... They honestly say that I am a SPAMMER... if that were true; shouldn't they be labeled as one as well????
Some members even add a message SCREAMING in caps on their profile page not to thank them...

(Not To Sound Rude)...I'm just saying...If they feel that way about me leaving a "Thank you" then they shouldn't bother :+fav:'ing my work...

(Don't Get Me Wrong)
... :+fav:'s are alright but COMMENTS are better.. Sometimes I feel I want to see or read more comments.....Thats what I'm here for..

Maybe I should post a SCREAMING message on my profile

"DON'T JUST :+fav: IT'S EQUAL TO THANK YOU !!!!"


I am always seeing something inspiring... So I take the time to go through galleries instead of leaving a "Thank you" Message.. Even though I get more :+fav:'s with no comments on my work. I still try and leave honest and positive feedback...I enjoy viewing the passion that is poured into the flow of lines, the shapes , color tones. and captured details of their art.
I leave comments with feelings ... Thats just how I am...

Positive And Honest Comments That's How I Say Thank You...


Try It Some Time



Thank-You (VS) +Fav's by Me2Smart4U
