Happy Earth Day (Feature)And what a dolt I am for not having realized the day. Such is the way of busy minds and schedules I suppose. Anyway, instead of focusing on the negatives that have certainly happened to the world, I want to focus on the positives. After all why celebrate destruction if that is not the goal of the day? Anyway, pause for a moment and look out the window. If you live in the city look up at the sky. Recognize what good is on this planet and what will continue to be good, I truly believe, for years to come. It is all too easy to ignore the good that happens on this earth and focus completely on the negative (our society as a whole is sadly pessimistic) however there is still hope for the planet and to say that we can destroy nature is to say we can control it, which is hardly the truth. Of course, please do be mindful of your choices, recycle, walk or bike where you can, be kind and respectful to all flora and fauna, but most of all celebrate the Earth we have, for it is the only one we've

For the Love of TreesA Tree
The world a blur to most
Most see a tree as a tree
The day you actually see
When the world is not the same world
A tree is no longer a tree
A tree is something that bears fruit
A tree is something beautiful
Even in the harshest winds
A tree stands its ground
A tree with leaves of majestic green
No longer just a tree
But a tree that is a work of art
That is the day you see the world
That is the day the world comes into focus
That is the day you truly see the tree
Laura Green

May!I'm still more caught up with real life than dA

I've been a little behind with posting my usual news article for some groups, I apologize for that. I would have done it in time if real life wouldn't take so much time, but living out there in the real world isn't that bad either

My 365 days photography project keeps me busy too, at least I don't really get the chance to just take good photographs, I'm always hunting something new to photograph and to post it. It's not easy and I still have a long way until I finish it, but I really really want to pull this through

I'm definetly a Spring person. It becomes more and more clear that Spring is my favourite season. It gives me more energy, I feel better, a little happier. Nature can put a smile on someone's face

The beauties and the surprises nature gives have no price.
I've started watching a few days ago a new series called "Heroes". Has any of you heard about it or is any of you watching it? I'm still at the first season

Given' some love...Because my premium membership is about to run out…. I am going to try and do my best to feature many many artists over the next 15 days.
Thanks to all, you are an inspiration to me!
First, I want to give a shout out to :icongreymoccasin:
His work blows me away and he is the most kindest person I know.

FEATURES:
In no particular order…
Please go see all these fantastic artists work
and give them all some

Devious Journal Entry

Paying it Forward 2013: Dedicated artworks!Now, You may have seen this on facebook but if you haven't this is how it works:
The first 10 people to comment on this status will receive from me, sometime in the next calendar year, a gift, but it will be a surprise! There will likely be no warning and it will happen whenever the mood strikes me.
The catch is obviously that those people have to do the same, the whole paying it forward thing - so feel free to do so!
I know its supposed to be a surprise but...The gift will be an Signed Print and the High resolution wallpaper of a yet to be made, exclusive, painting.
Have fun!
Lets start 2013 off proper!
The first 10 people who commented have been selected! Im sorry there was some confusion about this. If you are selected please let me know if you actually want this gift or not, otherwise it goes to the next person in line

Masters Of Capturing Light #2 + Neil Gaiman

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 1, 2012, 12:30 PM

I want to share with my 2500+ watchers that May was a good news month. Some animals decided to increase their families close enough to feel their magic (Rabbits, big Blackbirds and white Wagtails), I made 2nd in final #TheFavouriteShowcase poll, I started selling prints and I got my first and unexpected DAILYDEVIATION!

Thanks to ^deshrubber

Also, take a look at some magnificent works of people who are able to align eye, head and feelings, observing the world rather than only seeing it. Enjoy and support them!

:thumb305253957:

Listen what inspiring Neil Gaiman have to say about art, you know I can't help enjoying people that knows what's talking about:

Finally, May Speed Drawing Videos:

Cate Blanchet:

4 Horses:

Black & White Warbler:

Take care!
